Eagle-Mark 08-22-2004, 10:32 PM I ran across a set of Dana 70 axles, drum brake, 4:56 gear, Powerlock front and rear, recent brakes. Wondering what the worth of this set is? Drum brakes for wheeling?

So not much! :flipoff2: Davethorik 08-24-2004, 10:38 AM The powerlocks could be worth some cash. Also, I have seen D70 rears go for more than that before, I don't think that is typical. They are slightly stronger than a 14 bolt.

I wouldn't mind having a 70 rear, that way i could gear it lower than my current 14 bolt. 5.13 :rolleyes: Shadow man 08-24-2004, 06:03 PM I took a closed knuckle 70, narrowed it 7 1/2". Retubed one side to center the diff and installed 35 spline u-joint axles. Rear stear for my truck. If you put a pound or 2 of air to it , you can positive pressure the whole rear end all the way out to the hub flanges. No water is getting in. :D IHREDRIDER 08-24-2004, 06:30 PM One way to make a closed knuckle a lot better. Still weighs a shit-load though. http://home.bellsouth.net/p/s/community.dll?ep=331&folderid=164180&groupid=152300&folderview=thumbs&ck= Davethorik 08-24-2004, 11:31 PM The rears around here usually bring more than your average 14 bolt.

Around $350 or so. | |
