Do you mean convert it to standard freewheel fella, or resto the coaster?

If it's convert to freewheel, you'll need an ACS or JB (I think) adaptor, depending if it's a Bendix or Suntour (although don't quote me)

Ah - if it's a Suntour then here's the breakdown of how the bits and bobs go together:

You can buy the internals for em, what bits are you after fella, as I've just done up a Static Freecoaster (which is a modified Suntour) and might have some bits you can use - the internals are the same I believe if it's a Suntour on a mag.

Do you mean the bolts to fit it back into the wheel ?
I don't know but remember seeing some and they were pretty small in diameter.  Someone on here made some new rivits I think.
