wishmaster, i just need the gears. if you were closer i'd come get the whole axle.
but i'd hate to have you pull apart a good rear end, thats why i was asking for someone with a set just laying around. but if the axle is scrap and you want to pull the gears out and send them to me i'd (my friend would) toss you $20 plus shipping.

Its got 1.5 year old wheel cylinders and I also have the drums and all the brake hardware too. Shoot me an PM about it if you want to talk about it some more

Dont pay attention to the red mark, thats when I was asking question about where the C-clips were.

thanks for the quick replys guys. ive been emailed about a few sets and found a rear locally so i think i'm good.
theyre for a street stock racecar, my buddy is trying out some different gear options. the final drive ratio in 2nd gear is whats important, so with his tranny he thinks 2.73's might be what he needs. i told him i was pretty sure i could find a set for him, ya just have to know where to ask.
and he couldnt use the posi anyways, track rules = open rear only
