Strange 12 Bolt - Will DIY Assembly save $400?
Strange sells their 12-bolt housing with axles (PRG220) for $1300. A complete rear (PRG210) is $2485. It appears possible to save three to four hundred dollars by purchasing components and assembling them myself. I have the necessary tools and experience. I would appreciate comments from anyone who has pursued or considered this route.
Thanks, Gary

Above a certain threshold, the local expense approval process favors minimizing incremental cost rather than total cost. In some other organizations this is known as “keeping costs under the radar”.
