Title: 8.8 axle and exploder
Post by: moosin on January 28, 2010, 02:42:24 AM
OK so I've got an extra 8.8 axle for sale. It's almost completely stripped gears are out of it and most of the brackets are off it. Iv'e got all the pcs that I removed cant remember the gear ratio but they weren't common. Asking $250 OBO. And finally I've also got a 2000 ford explorer (minus rear axle) runs good most sheetmetal is banged up and missing some glass. No set price on either entire vehicle or parts just make me an offer in anything.

ok so you want to sell us a vehicle referred to as an "exploder" missing an axle. and an axle with "uncommon" gears. Good luck with that sale lol. But on a serious note I have a slight interest in that axle. Is it disk brakes or drum? And can you find out what the gears are. Limited slip or open? How many miles are on the axle, how is the wear on the gears?

if you want a good axle. get the same as mine. the chrysler 8.25 but get it from an 05 or newer liberty because they have rear discs.

i already swapped in an 8.25 29 spline. Not worth the work to convert it to disks. The 8.8 is a much better axle anyways. Especially if you ever plan on running anything more than a 33. Which art some point I do.

3.27 gears, open diff not LS. Yes it is disc brakes but all brake components will need to be rebuilt. No idea on how many miles are on the axles.

I got a complete 8.8(3:55's lsd, calipers) in great condition from a scrap yard for only $100

I don't think hes trying to sell anything just saying he got one a lot cheaper. I'm good with the 3.27s tho Ed, if I'm going to buy a rear end I want to get one with at least 4.10s in it already. Don't want to deal with re-gearing if I can avoid it.
