Built 1 ton axle values

[Mkuhn138]

Guys I'm considering building a 9" rear end, and a custom 9"/D60 front. That being said I'm trying to figure out the finances of it and part of that is determining what I can realistically get for my current axles.

rear is a 14bff, fresh rebuild with a couple hundred miles. Timken bearings, 5.13 nitro gears, disc brake conversion with caddy calipers, detroit locker, and solid diff cover.

Front is a D60, built at the same time as rear end, Timken bearings, 5.13 nitro gears, open carrier, 35 spline outers, new spicer non-greasable ujoints with caps welded, brand new calipers, setup for crossover, solid drive flanges, and solid diff cover.

What is a fair value for each? Also, if somebody is interested in them let me know.

Where I. The country really makes a huge difference. Around here stock 60 front is only worth 500bux whereas in some places they go for 1000. I'd say market value on axle plus 60% of parts cost would get you closeish

It sounds like the axles you have would be stout enough for all but the most demanding of applications. What kind of plans do you have for the truck? I'd say Stomis is about right on the value, see what stock axles are going for in your area and tack on 50-60% for parts costs.

They are definitely bulletproof enough to get me anywhere, however I'm kind of changing my mind on my build and may make it a Class 3 truck. Either way im going to try and shed as much weight as possible, and have a major surplus of 9" stuff on hand from circle track stuff.

I'm no expert, but I paid $1800 for a CUCV set and I don't think it was out of line for around here. They were old and had to be rebuilt, so I've got a lot in them in parts and some farmed out labor. In this market $2500 wouldn't seem out of line for your stuff, though people underestimate the work and parts required and may gravitate to $1600 salvage stuff... FWIW
