Ford DS Drop 44 and 9"

[family xj]

What's a fair price for a set in good condition? I got mine with everything attached including radius arms, steering, and a rolling set of 33's on 10" wide rims for $400 from BigWheel on here and I thought that was a good deal. Just a little dirty and surface rust. Maybe I should get some of the others and try to sell them. Thoughts? I only ask cause I see just fronts going for almost as much as what I paid.

I picked up a set for $300 locally. But I had to pull them myself. It would have been worth it to have them on a decent set of rollers and out from under the truck for another $100.

I traded for mine straight-up for Scout D44s. Basically cost me $200.

I agree with the $300-350. Most of these folks aren't accounting majors so they don't know what the meaning of depreciation is
Seems like NC and some surrounding areas have higher selling prices for axles compared to other places like MI, etc.

I would pick up everything in pieces if at all possible. Might could save money, and in turn make money on the sale.

Yeah I thought it was good I didn't have to pull them and he loaded them on the trailer for me. I got them ready to go in now. I thought about piecing them together too but that was too much work and driving around/shipping. I just have to finish the wifes car first before they go in.

I bought a D44 from a 77 F150 that had the desirable weld on C's for $300 from my local JY guy. I had to remove it, but I took everything I wanted including the coil spring towers off the frame, radius arms, R/A brackets, track bar, T/B brkt etc. I decided not to use it and sold it for the same price a couple of months later.
