Im not sure if this is a tech question so please move it if its in the wrong place. I just wanted to see if this is a good deal. Dana 30 with chromoly axle shafts 4.56 gears and a dana 35 with 4.88 gears (bad pinion). He only wants $100 for everything... All I want are the shafts and 4.56 gearing. Should I hop on this?

cool I was thinking this was a good deal. I forgot to ask him if the dana 30 was converted to a 30 spline. If it was, is this a bad or good thing? I heard the 30 spline can put a lot of stress on everything especially if you throw in a locker.

yep thats what i was gonna do. I was going to just put everything into my 93 dana 30. His is a 91 dana 30 which has the vaccum disconnect thing. He did however use the kit and replace that piece (not sure what its called. Since he got rid of the vaccum thing would it be easier to just drop that axle in, which has everything installed already? Also how much would the 4.88 gear be worth?

id just swap the axle under it... the cost in swapping all the guts would not be worth it... probly 50 to 75 bucks... id let ebay determine what there worth... its hard to get deals on ebay anymore... everyone knows about it... so you should get what there worth on there as long as you know how to list item well...
