87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 is a busted rear axle. Not doing anything but driving the three blocks home, hear ugly noises, felt ugly things. 3 teeth gone from the ring gear. let loose in second gear, just maintaining speed.

87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 it's a d35, I should have replaced it from the start, I just wanted it to last through the summer. it's geared 3.73. I'm calling yards right now about 3.73 geared 8.8's. unfortunately the going rate seems to be about $300 for one that's complete with calipers. I can get them for $100 without the calipers, but calipers are $70(!) if you don't have a core to turn in, and the $100 ones don't have the brackets either, the brackets are another $30 a piece. That said, who wants to buy my full detroit for a D35. locker still works, I function tested it last night. $100 get's the locker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rokhound Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 do some shoping on car-parts.com you might find one cheaper. I no that is where i found mine. Plus you already said it but upgrade to the 8.25 or go with the 8.8 and good luck man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 I've already decided on the 8.8 It's difficult to find an 8.25 geared 3.73 They don't even list them as an option on car-part. but there's lots of 3.73 geared 8.8's out there.

mjeff87 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I can get you one out of the 'yard down here for about $100, and get it to Steubenville, but I'm not coming up to PA until early June. If you can get by until then.....I'll swap you for your locker :D Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 problem is that I've got a few large wheeling trips planning in june, or else I'd for sure take you up on that offer. I've got a guy local to me that's pulling his 8.8 out of his explorer, he offfered it to me complete for $150. I'm going to put my 3.07 geared d35 in the MJ, until he get's that axle out in may. at least that's the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEThomas Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Marshalls has them for $90. Came with the calipers when I got it back on Nov. and you can turn in your D35 on it. Your not more then a few hours away from them. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88swampedmj Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 id got to a pull it yourself yard, thats where i got my 8.8 for $35 dollars... actually my friend payed for it for my b-day so i got a free 8.8 with 4.10s and disk brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I'd be interested in the locker if it's around after the wheeling and dealing. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goal is to swap in my 3.07 geared one this weekend, so I can drive it, and then go and get an 8.8 If what you're saying is true I will call them. Do you have the number by chance?

87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 I'd be interested in the locker if it's around after the wheeling and dealing. :D locker is up for sale, I've not pulled it yet since the axle is under the truck, but it's in decent shape. I'll get pictures this weekend when I pull the carrier. Amazingly enough the locker still works just fine. I initially thought it was the detroit that failed, so I function checked it before I pulled the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEThomas Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 NO not a pick - n - pull, they will load it in your truck for that price :D Here is the link, I do 90% of all my used stuff with them as they are only 11 miles away :cheers: http://www.marshallsautoparts.com/ Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get that 15 miles from me, but the calipers and mounting brackets are pricey items if you don't have cores. Maybe I need to have you call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEThomas Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Who did you talk to? They have a 30 day warranty on them. And the 3 axles I have got over the past 4 months came complete. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 don't know who I talked to. but I asked if they came with calipers and caliper brackets, he told me no. not really concernd with the warranty, but I don't want to buy new brake stuff, exploder rear brakes will cost $200 for the brackets and calipers.

CEThomas Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If I get a chance I will stop by and check on the price today. If they take them off now, I will get the core charge as they sale the calipers for $10 each. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 well, even $10 calipers aren't that bad. The other place told me $45 a piece for the caliper and bracket. so if they want $120 for the axle and it's brakes that is still a good deal.

CEThomas Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Let me check today, I got a 8.8 back in Nov for the MJ with everything for $90 Front axle missing the caliper and axle on one side for $30 in Nov And another axle for a Astro van for a guy at work with everythig for $90 in Feb.

87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 man, sounds like they hook up locals that go in. Guy I talked to really didn't sound like he wanted to talk on the telephone. If it's less than $150 with the calipers and everything I would take one. Not to be picky, but see if you can't find out if it's open carrier out LS, I'd rather have an open carrier so I can put an aussie in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Don't talk to Casey. I see eight 3.73 8.8s they list as "complete". The ones labeled D4 should be the posi ones. Whatever you do, demand that they pop the cover so you can inspect it on the spot. The one time I didn't do that, I bought an axle that was in a crash and had a bent shaft. :( But every axle I've purchased from them has been complete with brakes. I was actually planning a trip down to them for some other parts. What city were you in? Maybe I can bring it to you. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll pass right by me. that's what i didn't get, they list them as complete, but he told me no brakes., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I'm hoping to go tomorrow or Friday. If you want one, zap me an email and we'll iron out a schedule. petermontie@hotmail.com I noticed that the v8 ones were $89 and the V6 ones were $99. :nuts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 yeah I may take you up on that, it would save me the trip down there, and give me time to put my spare d35 under the manche on saturday. You want to stop by here and pickup cash first, or pay you when you drop it off? You're welcome to pick through the parts pile outback as well, got some stock springs and such back there.
