I called a couple yards in Los Angeles and they get $450 for a complete front axle and that includes only a core third member.
These are the prices I will be asking as soon as I can sell here.
I know the rear is worth-less,although the third member can be built and used for something???
As far as the front , everyone makes trusses or stiffeners for the housing and you usually rear gear the diff anyways. Can u say SAS.
Just my two cents.
