Default How much is used 10bolt, 4ch, 3:42 usually cost?

Just in case mine blew up, at least i am prepared.

I am planning to drag the car, just occasional red light to red light, but i know the 10 bolt is a ticking time bomb, so better be prepared.

Thanks.

If you call around to some shops sometimes you can get them for next to nothing or even free. I got one a couple years ago at a shop up in DC because the guy was tired of having it in his shop, he had done a 12 bolt swap for a guy and the guy didn't want the stock rear and it was just taking up space. All I had to do was drive 3 hours to pick it up.

Yeah I used to be worried about DR's at the track. But after you realize that they are not too expensive and you can change it in a couple hours taking your time, **** it, launch that bitch!

Just make sure your suspension is decent. You want to try to eliminate all wheel hop, that is what will kill your rear end the quickest.

do you know anyone that have one for sale? I would like to keep one in my garage for spare. A good condition, low miles with 3:42.
