Ok,

So I stopped at one of the more reputable recyclers here in Winnipeg to see about getting an 8.8 rear end for my '04 V6...and boy did I leave pissed off!

Who in their right mind would pay between $750 and $1000 for a used rearend? Seriously, I couldn't believe it!! I told the guy that at $750 it's about $500 more than I'd ever pay...so I guess I won't be getting an 8.8 any time soon....

 

I think most of them just try to price at 1/2 of what a dealer sells them new for. I'm sure if you spend some time on kijiji you'll find something.

 

Just think that they paid **** for that car too. They make there money.
At the same token, i hear that they prefer to deal with collision shops, ects anyways, and the prices reflect that.

 

You looking for a stock one? Or beefed up a bit? I have the one in my car I may sell, thinking of going 9".

 

holy friggen expensive batman. I would have left pissed as well, hopefully something falls in your lap. Not literally as that might hurt lol

 

Exactly,

and considering I paid $300 for my 7.5 with 4.10's and T-Lok...and I kinda think I overpaid for those..the likelyhood I'm going to pay that much for a stock 8.8 is ridiculous!!

 

^^^ Won't be good for ur diet.

 

Thanks Cuttin...

Stock for now, would upgrade later to 3.73 gears...just don't know how I'd get it from Vineland to Winnipeg...

 

If your in Vineland, stop by for a bevvy.

 

Well,

I'm originally from the Hammer, but I don't get home often...but I'll look you up the next time...
