That seems a little steep. From what I've seen, you can get a full rear axle with brakes for about that. BTW, where are you in Wa?

You will need a ss axle. there is a lot of standard drum axles out there that wont work with out the "disc flange" on them. I looked for one for a long time. The one I found in Colorado had a broken weld and was bent.
I put new brake parts on, you don't know what your getting second hand.

Well, between yesterday and today, I fixed the drivers side rear shock.. Hopefully going to pick up some new SS springs or Goldlines and put them on. :)

Went to the bodyshop to see the progress on my wagon...all the body work is done...rear wiper hole and squirter hole filled in and smooth! Only thing left is paint and put it all back together. Can't wait to have it back!

Make sure to post up some "post operative" pics, glad to hear your ride is on the mend from Snowmageddon.
