what are dana 30 or dana 35 front narrow track axle worth and a dana 20 rear axle for jeep cj worth? and their is nothing done to them thay are stock axles.
 
that would be a dana 30 front and AMC 20 rear axle, what ratio? drum or disc brake front? I would say between 100-150 each maybe a little more if front has discs.
 
discs brakes on the front axle and drums on the rear. and I don't know what the gear ratio is thay are still under my cj I am trying to figure out how much thay are worth because I need to sell them to come up with the money to buy the parts to put my new axles under my jeep there is nothing wrong with the narrow track axles I just wanted some wider axles so I bought so wide track cj axles

the late 70's CJ axles have bigger brakes than the 80s CJ axles both front and rear (10" smooth drums, 11" finned), and biiger and thicker discs in the late 70s. Also the earlier D30 has a better 6-bolt caliper bracket, compared the to the later 2-bolt versions. The earlier axles use Warn premium lockout hubs, later ones use standard. When I swapped to widetrack, I stripped all the 80s crap from the widetracks and used my '77 knuckles and brakes.
Oh, if the rear AMC20 is 2.73 ratio, thats pretty undesirable as that ratio has its own carrier.
Whats it worth...? whatever someone will pay for it.
 
Some of the early 80s lockouts have an odd bolt pattern that required their own special lockout to be made from Warn and the other companies, which used to be a standard strength rather than the "premium" versions, which was weaker and broke a lot (at least that was my experience).

You could prob. move them quick for $100 each if everything was decent and someone just needed a replacement. Can prob. move for a little more on CL if you hold on to them for a little while
 
I just bought a '79 Dana 30 for $50. I just wanted it (as RenegadeT had mentioned) for the 6-bolt Warn premium lockouts to replace the 5-bolt lockout hubs on my '85 widetrack Dana 30. Needless to say, they're not worth much unless they have a locker or higher gearing in them. You can figure out what they're geared pretty easily by looking at what's stamped on the AMC20 pumpkin see http://www.jeeptech.com/axle/amc20.html.
