Was wanting to know if any of you Vegas guys have a HP30 laying around that I can snag from you. My LP30 is kicking the bucket and if I'm going to be replacing the front I want something "stronger".

Or anything else that will work with a 98' ZJ. HP44, etc etc

I used to be able to get front axles up in Seattle for 50$-100$ all day long (working) so nothing too expensive. I know that XJ's have the HP30 in them from the factory, but 200$ + for a turd (pic a part) seems a bit over the top to me.

But let me know what you guys all got and the price you want.

Who wants to trade a 231 for my 231 with a SYE installed? I would like to have 4wd and with a kid on the way I can't afford a CV driveshaft at the moment. Or a 242 also.
