8 3/4, what’s it worth?

Isn’t there 1 4 sale on here for like $3500.00? All brand new everything. I think it would cost that much to build what you’re asking about. New Doctor Diff pumpkin is at least $1500.00. Housing on the cheap side $500.00. Axles if chrome Molly $1000.00. Brake assamblies and drums $500.00. And if u bought the housing ends, spring pads and a few other incidentals it all adds u super fast. Kim

For sale is different than sold though. I feel like someone would be nuts to pay $3500 for a complete 8 3/4". I'd say half of what it would cost to build is reasonable if it's still in new condition.

Just going off of parts I've bought and sold for the last 20 years.
