what is a good price?

[abadsvt]

I was looking for a 67-69 12 bolt rear end for my truck and i was curious on what is a good price. I know that is all relative to how bad i need it but i don't want to over pay. I found a couple but they wanted $250 for them. That sounded a little high but thought i would double check with you guys first. Thanks

Don't know about your area, but over here in the hot part of the state we see them on Craigslist for about 50-100 dollars.

There is one in Turlock right now, 3.07 ratio for $50.

Edit, is there a width difference or changes for the 70-72?

[sameyrasmea72]

Depends on availability I guess. $250 seems a bit high. I have sold several for $100, and $150-$200 for a 71-72.

67-68 (I think) were about 2" shorter than the 69-72's.

Am I right Longhorn Man?

for a 40year old rear of unknown condition i wouldn't pay more than $50 unless maybe it had really good done recently brakes in that case $75-$100

I paid $150 for one.. and gave the old one away for free last week.

That is what i thought. Thanks alot guys. I am going to keep looking. Tring to find one semi local so i don't have to spend too much driving to get the new rear end. Let me know if you guys come a cross a 67-69 c10 rear end for a good price!!! Thanks

Its all location I am scraping one I would have given you if you were closer

Depends on open or posi, gear ratio, etc. I have sold 3.73 posi's and 4.11 posi's for $200-400. an open 3.08 I'd guess $50-125. In the scheme of things $200 isn't a lot of $$$, and is way cheaper than rebuilding an old axle?

Its a great time to change over to a 5 bolt rear if you are so inclined.

I am going to have to the axles redrilled because i went with 5x4.75 bolt pattern and already have wheels. The easier way would be to use a passenger car rear end but not sure what model or year would match up the 67-69 c10 rear ends if there is any.
