Good condition, open gear set 2.74 I think. It has backing plates, drums & shoes.
2-SBP 14" steel wheels, I may have two additional 14" steel wheels in my storage unit

Asking 150.00 plus the ride when shipping is needed, local pickup is also an option. I could travel a few miles to help someone if needed,

Items are located in North Dallas Texas.
 
Did you replace yours with 8 3/4?
Im asking because I want to replace mine as well and any advice is greatly appreciated.
 
Yes, I replaced with an 8 3/4... pretty easy swap

Replaced the rear springs with the ESPO www.springsnthings.com ones stock height. Had to get a different drive shaft whitepunkonnitro on the forum supplied that.. A universal joint that adapted the smaller driveshaft yolk to the larger yolk that was on the 8 3/4 (mine had a heavy duty one that is larger than normal). Had to locate some spring perches/shock mounts and new u-bolts for the larger diameter axle tubes on the 8 3/4 ebay or on they are listed sometimes on the forum classifieds.. I think I had to get a new brass vent tube/brake splitter for the new 8 3/4 too - ebay .. My 8 3/4 came complete with everything including brakes..

Took me a bout a 1 1/2 days by my self, including cleaning, brake bleeding / rebuild and time off for beaks, beverages and sleep.. lol

Thanks I really appreciate it. I have an 8 3/4 drum to drum minus the axles I picked up locally. Just had it blasted and about to paint myself. Do you remember the measurements for the U bolts and the part number for the universal joint adapter?
