8 3/4 Question

Depending on what you paid and the condition of the center section, you might want to cut your losses and find an A-body housing, axles and backing plates. Just my 2 cents.

A good locking center section alone seems to go for 600 to 1500 dollars, a-body housings are in the 400-600 range, axles (pair) 100-150, backing plates 30-75 (pair).
