Just seems like a waste of a few hours for no good pay out. Sell the 3.73 axle on cl. Make 100-150 on it and save up for a real locker.

if you got each axle for $75 cant you pull a couple shafts for super cheap?
where are you finding 8.8's for that cheap in CA anyway?? I cant pull one for less than $280 at PnP
you can sell it for $150 easy keeping it for shafts is crazy talk
