Value of a set of built j20 axles?
O the times they are a-changin...gonna be getting rid of the j20 axles when i swap in the one tons. Problem is, i dont really know how to price them.
Front specs (1981 j20 d44hd, thick tubes): Factory 3.73 gears, Warn hubs about half beat up (fully functional, scarred faces) All new bearings/seals when rebuilt 3-yrs ago (except differential), new calipers 2-yrs ago, chromoly steering (1.25" O.D. x 1/8" wall) and 3/4" heims 2-yrs old (no slop in heims), full highsteer setup with new balljoints 2-yrs ago, rockcrusher diff cover that has crushed many a rock, aussie locker installed 3-yrs ago (works perfectly), set of spare axles shafts.
Rear specs: Factory 3.73 gears, welded trac lok carrier, factory drums, will come with thick d60 factory front diff cover.
I think the front is worth ~$650 and rear, well, ~$100?? Bonus is that they are bolt in swap for '80 and up j10 or j20. Easy enough to move the perches for a wag.
Do the prices seem out of line?

Doesn't seem out of line to me.
When I parted out my HD44 front stuff I think I recouped about $500 (gave some away too), add in your chromoly and the locker and that's a decent deal.

Are the perches not the same from a Wag and a J truck?

Front yes, rear no.
Truck rear has a much wider frame.

I couldn't give mine away when I sold them.
I had the q-trac D60 offset rear with spool and fresh 5.13s and D44 front with spool and 5.13s ended up selling them for $350 or $400 and it took 2-3 months for them to sell.
