Well as I keep upgrading my Jeep, I keep ending up with spare parts. I have never asked for advice on parts before, cause they have always been parts I bought used, and sold for close to what I paid for them.

 

 

I am getting ready to go to full widths here in the next few months, and I was wondering what the consensus on my current axle setup worth would be.

 

 

 

here is the setup.

D30 with Terra flex hi steer knuckle, Yukon alloy shafts with 760 u-joints, Lockright, with 4.10 gears. It also has LCA skids, truss on the passenger side uppper mount, and a modified warn diff cover. Steering links are 1.5x1/4 wall dom with 1tonChevy TRE, and the aluminum drag link from terra as well. All these parts have are less then a yr old except the axle housing itself.

 

 

The rear is a 97 8.8, that is lincoln locked, it has a BTF diff cover, and spider trax wheel spacers. the spring perches are 3x2x1/4 wall tubing, and the tubes have been welded to the pumpkin.

 

 

More then likely I wil be also selling the 35's with 50 -60% tread on beat down cragar soft 8's. That are dynamically balanced using air soft pellets. So basically the new owner would get everything, except a lift kit, to wheel the piss out of.

 

I am going to try and sell them as a set, hopefully to a MJ owner who is going to use them for what they were built for. The reason for me going to bigger axles is so I can run bigger tires. I want to move up to 38's, at least till I get the money for a hp60.

I'll vote for 500-1000, with $750 springing to mind. The thing that turns me off is the lincoln lock on the 8.8. I wasn't including the tires in that thought. Just axles and steering. If I had the cash I'd buy'em, but I'm broke, and the

Shanging it back to a LSD or a open diff is as easy as telling me that is what you want. The LSd carrier might be a lil harder to get a hold of, but the open carrier is realtively cheap. I would install the new carrier if that was really a sticking point. But for 750, I think I will hold onto the axles. I did the math, and the parts alone in the front axle total over 1500. Thats not including the rear axle, or the rims and tires.

I really haven't a clue what they are worth. I agree that the Lincoln locker is not a selling point, it's a big demerit. And I cannot see anyone paying anywhere close to $1500 for a pair of used axles for an MJ.
