So I'm thinking about purchasing a 2006 f350 diesel that was destroyed in a fire. Heres the link... http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/pts/4593814597.html

Obviously I want it for the axles. My question really isn't about compatability or the fab work. I'm wonderimg about any potential damage that the axles could have incurred. Is there anything specific I should be looking at when I go to see it???

Thanks!!

 

Seals, unit bearings, ball joints, etc, could likely need to be replaced due to fire damage. Adds up fast. There are a ton of those axles sitting at salvage yards starting at $500 for grade A. Seems a lot easier to just get them that way.
