I have a spare Rock Shox Dart 3 29er fork. Used for a few months, but still in pretty good condition, looking to get $50 for it.

It's hard to make it work right unless you've really calculated the geometry of the frame into the equation with respect to the height of the fork and bigger wheel. Using a a rigid 29 fork will be easier. If the geometry of the frame doesn't work, you'll most likely end up with something that's not as enjoyable to ride as your 26er. I would say give it a try if you can borrow a fork and wheel, but I don't think it's worth the risk to buy stuff just to find out it doesn't ride well. I guess another option is to get some used parts and sell them if it doesn't work.
