so i got a call from a friend of mine and i almost pissed myself. i drove right to his house and bought it that instant.

its a basically brand new dana 30 front end with:
-4.56 gears
-ARB locker
-chromoly axles
-super joint u joints
-trussed
-solid diff cover
-heavy duty tie rod/draglink
-new brakes

all for $900!!!!!!

I am soooooo excited!!!

 

Great score, Brandon!!! You know you suck, right?? LOL.

 

lol ya so ive heard! and tyler is probly gonna buy my front end and put it in his jeep and then with that money i will buy my rear aussie most likely. but ya this thing is worth $2500 easy! its an awesome score! the only bad thing is i have to wait until i get 4.56 gears for the rear and i need to buy a compressor for it.

 

Don't you have a 8.25 rearend in your Jeep?? If so, you might have to get a Lock Rite for the rear unless you have the newer 29 spline version of the 8.25.

 

Awesome find and price man good luck with the rest off your parts

 

oh damn your right i didnt even think about the spline count. i will have to check that out. i think i have 27 spline but im not sure. thanks for the heads up! lol

 

I had Lock Rites in my Toy truck back in the day. They work great. They are just a little more expensive than Aussies. Aussies average $240 an end and the best price I've found for a Lock Rite for Jeep axles is $320.

 

nice score, why cant deals fall into my lap like that. if you need a compressor my neighbor might still have one for sale, he got rid of his jeep but had an extra compressor(i dont know why) but is brand new. swindled something for sure, he tried to sell it to me for 100 bucks, If you want i will find out the details for you and let you know!!!!

 

seattlecrwler, is it just the compressor or does it have all of the wiring harness for the locker too?

Brian, so i found out that i do have the 29 spline 8.25. the 97's and newer have the 29. aussie has the 8.25 locker for $299. i will probly go ahead and get that some day. lol but before then i need to get gears installed and get a compressor and wire it all up then i can save up to get the rear locker. so who knows when that will be lol

 

compressor, harness,mounting hardware, and plumbing. but I dont know if it is still availible

 

Brandon, that is good to hear that you have the 29 spline 8.25. The Aussie Locker is a much better price for the same amount of strength and function....I believe the Aussies have a little bit better road manners....quieter and less ratcheting in corners.
