Re: Junkyard Pics today

$1000 for a Dana 60 front???? How do I identify one, is it just assumed on the 1-ton 4wd? I'll be going back tomorrow, and the slider is on the list too.

They are not worth that. Maybe purchasing and shipped to the other side of the world. MAYBE.

Re: Junkyard Pics today

The inside of the stepper looks like this, I think it's pretty much a gonner:

DirtyLarry, the white crew and stepside both have 1-ton 4wd front axles. I think I'm gonna try to do a little bartering with this guy and see what he'll do if I can bring him a buyer for the axles. He has three 60-100 gallon compressors he pulled from a plant and he set aside an 80 gallon with a single phase motor for me, I'll try and get that free. I'd be happy if he makes some money because after all it's his crap and his dog either got put to sleep last night or will be undergoing expensive surgery. He's gonna need the dough if that's the case.
Morgsie, I did a little checking and these axles are going for 800-1200 unrestored and up to 2800 all done.

Check ebay,craigslist,pirate4x4,etc.They sell for upwards of $1000 every day of the week.Sometimes you can get them for less if you search,and dually styles usually go for less than the SRW (single rear wheel style) but they are still expensive.

Well considering I read pirate4x4 on daily basis, I STILL don't believe you. For $1000 you should be able to get the dana60 front + the matching 14 bolt rear.

Go to sleezebay right now and you will find Dana 60's going for $700 to $1100, If LEEVON can pick these up for a couple hundred that's a good profit margin.

$1,225 and the reserve wasn't met.

It even says in his ad, "Why pay $1000 for an axle and still have to rebuild it". That means they are worth $1000 used. Granted, there are some on ebay go for less, but they're also sold "B.I.N." in minutes because people know it's a steal at anything less than $500.

Re: Junkyard Pics today

I find it funny that all the dana 60 ..... on ebay is FORD. And this is a Chevy forum. AND A FORD DANA WON'T FIT A CHEVY. AND CHEVY 60S ARE CHEAPER BECAUSE THERE IS WAY MORE OF THEM. Do some research .....
And since when has ebay EVER been a good judge to base prices on?
