Indeed a bonus if you don't have to replace/refurb things. Very good find nonetheless!

Not particularly. I need to get as much money back as I can

What would you want off of it? The LSD components?

Well you are on your way to a better truck. Steering wise even if you don't do the upgrade to the hd steering just going to the 60 made a big diff in my truck and I kept the 44 in top shape. I sure hope you have better luck selling your used parts than I did.

Well since the axle is a 02 I was planning on doing the 4th gen steering upgrade

I can't determine if I'm looking forward to the steering upgrade or brake upgrade more

^^^ It's now hard for me not to type dana 44 biggest tire 33's, crappy steering Dana 44, crappy brakes dana 44, spend more on $$ on a dana 44 upgrading it nope not worth it. Even with the junky setup for steering when I do find a straight stretch of road I can let go of the wheel and it tracks true, brakes there are some now.

Well apparently car trailers don't exist that will haul a full size ram pick up. They'll fit Chevys and fords but dodges are too big.

Guess I'm paying someone with a rollback to get it
