I am considering buying a complete 1998 12v drivetrain consisting of:
[*]Engine w 100k
[*] Auto trans w 12k on Jasper rebuild (w/ upgrades, but not sure what they are)
[*] X-fer case w/ 100k
[*] 3:55 axles with 100k
[*] Front drive shaft
Been sitting indoors since 2003. However, I can buy the whole deal for $2500...maybe less. I would then swap the 12v and Jasper trans into my '98 QCSB and sell my 24v (w/ 177k), good auto trans and 100k axles after the swap. I could give people good deals on everything, I think, and still get an engine/trans with low miles in my truck in for just a few dollars.
I could not do the swap myself. Just don't have the equipment anymore...or the patience. So, I'd have to pay a shop to do it...
Questions:
Is this an easy swap.--'98 24v for a '98 12v?
What's the value on my 24v (177k) and trans?
What's the value of the 100k 3:55 axles? (My truck already has 3:55s.) Or should I swap them into my truck, too?
What's a fair price to pay a shop to do the swap?
Is this a stupid idea?
Thanks,
bb
