Default Is this worth it?
8.8 Rearend stock length,just freshened her up has 31 spline moser axles,cobra trak lok with carbon clutches,bmr weld on relocation brackets,4:10 gears,new bearings,will leave the backing plates and reluctor rings on it and let it go for $1800 obo with aluminum driveshaft and lakewood lower control arms
I can get the rearend for $1400 from a member here. Just wondering if this is worth the money since I've never really researched much on the 8.8?

Thanks guys.

Throw a few bucks more at it and you can have a 12 bolt.

you can find a used 12 bolt for around 1800. I would go for that because it's a little more reliable.

Thanks guys.

Doubtful. Just go with the 12-bolt. You wont be sorry.
