I am looking at a used dana 44 housing that has a riddler diff cover is sleeved and trussed and comes with rcv shafts. The guy is asking $1600. Just wondering if this is a good price. Thanks

 

I think so. Those shafts are like 900 alone?

 

Yeah great price

 

Shafts are 1185

 

Front or rear?

 

It is out of a JK, correct? Would the owner object to you're running it by a shop to verify that it isn't bent? Just the parts you mentioned, or is it complete with gears and locker?

 

I don't think its bent with sleeves and gussets...gussets don't go in If it is and if its bent while they were in it would show signs of an impact more than likely....

 

There are reports of people bending housings with sleeves or trusses installed. And other reports of people adding gussets to keep already bent c's (or what they assume are bent c's from an out of spec camber) from bending further.

You are a fabricator and likely have a good sense of what you are looking at, but would you really advise people without your experience to just hand over $1600, rather than spend a little time checking it out, maybe driving to a shop and sliding an alignment bar in? I know I wouldn't.

 

It is the front.

That guy? Pretty decent price for the axle i'd say ( for the axle )
