Guy at work has a Sterling 10.25 geared 4.10 for $350. Good deal?

found a guy with a d60 front and sterling 10.25 for $650.. I'm strongly considering it, but idk if that'd be too much axle of that makes sense

No such thing as to much axle

josh_edwards6

true. but still. that's a lot of weight. d44s would probably be more practical. then again.. won-tons

mdo817

That is un-sprung weight. I will tell you what was told to me one time. You can build up a D44, but the the time you put money and time into it, you will probably have as much or more into it than you would have in a D60, and you will still not have an axle as strong or reliable. I started my last XJ with a D44/D60 it was a good combo, but now I am 60/60 and can tell you, I had way more in my D44 than the asking price of those tons you have found.

Plus why do something twice.

Travis and will, I'm probably going to pick up the trussed superduty 60 that's on Chattanooga area 4x4 sell and trade today. I'm thinking 700 is a pretty fair price since it's trussed and has a beef diff cover and ram mount. What do y'all think?

I think that's high for a D60.

I have about $1200 in my D44. (including steering) I couldn't come close to building a 60 for that.

Then again, I don't want a D60 because I don't plan on going over 35's in the forseeable future.

I haven't looked at the add, only seen pics. What gears and shafts are in it?

bhennessee1

3.73 gears and stock shafts, he said it's an 06 so I think they should be 35 spline.

i figured it was a decent deal since Travis was asking 500 for them fresh out of the yard earlier this year.

Doesn't sound too bad. I'd probably give $700 for it but cash talks.

If your referring to the D60 that Donovan built, that thing is ****ing beef. That truss setup is insane

bhennessee1

yea that's the one I'm goin to get it at 7:30. I'm highly excited. It looks like a ****ing tank.
