Used Parts Opinion

Depends on who had the gears, if he raced the car or not, mileage also counts.

How about 73,000 miles on the pair, just a daily driver, hes asking around $130.

you can buy NEW for a bit more. You should go for 50% at the most of new gears. new ones cost $175.

Shoot for $85 when buying used.

if there's no chips, they should be fine.

You can also get them from junked Rangers.

A posi differential is included with the gears thats why they seem so expensive, think its a good deal if they're in good shape? thanks!

What kind of trak-lok?

If it's a FR unit, it's probably going to have to be rebuilt.

I'd ditch it and get a Detroit Locker.
