TA single crank conversion

I want to single-ize my favorite crankset, my TA cyclotourist for a commuter build. It's a triple now. Am I going to run into any problems with this, or is it as simple as just slapping a single chainring on there? It'll be a 1x8 with a chainguard to keep the chain from falling off, so I'm not too concerned about chainline. I seem to recall [MENTION=152773]noglider[/MENTION] did this with a TA with tiny crank arms, but I think that was an IGH setup.
