Maybe for someone

Could be good for someone looking to start off fresh. LP, possibly vacuum disco(?), No internals. But a Detroit and some Chromo shafts can fix that.

Yeah, that caught my eye too. It' been on pnwjeep.com since the weekend. I actually PM'd John Mathews about it:

Gears/install kit and labor, $350ish
Detroit, $500ish
Axle shafts, $250-300 stock /w spicer joints, $600-650 alloys and super joints (what I run)
Steering, depends what you wanna do. stock $50-100 and will work about as good as what you have now, $300-400 to do like I've got (crossover, etc.)
Actually, I think about it more we may be able to use your steering stuff you HAVE. Waggy is only 1" wider and I think there's plenty adjustment on your to get 1/2" out of each side. You would also be oddball bolt pattern (6lug). You could use all ford outers/brakes to get to 5 on 5.5" and use spacers in the rear ($100), but that would be another $200-300 in hubs, rotors, calipers, etc. The waggy's are good IF you do 'em front and rear and match bolt patterns or you convert the fr. to 5 lug. IF you were gonna do it, I would consider finding a waggy D44 rear and go 4.88's fr. and rr. and sell of your axles as a pair, OR just spend the money and convert the front to 5 lug.

All said and done, it's just too much money for me right now, as tempting as it is.

Worth it for someone who wants something relatively strong to beat the hell out of.

But the LP would lose it for me... I'd rather start with a Tera CRD50 (though not cheap) and build as I go. :rof:

Yea, I wouldn't go for the LP either. Already got the front DS a bit. Used shafts with new u joints(carry spares!), open carrier, some 5.13 gears, lunchbox locker, and some other misc parts, you could be in it for less than a grand, or a touch over.

Another 'maybe for someone'. If it comes with nutstrips, less of a hassle to find some, its not a bad deal, IMO.

So you didn't accept Avanteone's $100 offer?
