Remember this though, the more time you spend on parts trucks, the less you spend on your own.

This is the same way i figure mine and the bottom line says it all.
The only way i have found to sell the rear ends is part them and scrap the housing. The posi's are always a easy sale and sometimes the gear sets depending on ratio. The rest i scrap since no one likes to pay truck freight prices. That always hurts on any big items. And everyone who is interested is always to far away. Hope this helps. Jason

P.S. Don't forget to also add what you'll get for scrap price on what remains when you get all the good parts off it. I got $95 for the last one i took in with no motor, trans, and rear end. At the time they were paying $70 a ton.
