You're not getting hurt at $600. The front axles go for that. The rears are cheap.

I sold mine with the rotors and calipers for $1400 for the pair before I ever did anything with them.

That's definitely the going rate for one of those.

I remember them days. **** Andy is the one that got me into and helped me do the 8.25 swap in my first Cherokee. Very solid axle.

In my area, that's a bit high. 14 bolts are far more desirable and cheaper typically.

Thanks all for the advice did not mean to hyjack your thread to ask this question but I figured I would get the quick responses I did to sum up my thoughts. I'm still leaning for the C8.25 but figured if a deal was good enough to grab it now I would.
