Default 8.8 rear for 350?

Found an 8.8 rear end taken out of an 09 Gt, has about 5000 miles on it. Looks to be in good condition. OEM gears and all.

What would you guys thing estimated shipping be from 14850 to 68116 would be, shipped freight..

Also, is 350 a good deal? Should I hop on this now?

Seems like a great deal, but without checking zip codes, I'd bet it would $150 to ship, if not more. Still good though, considering NTO rears were still what, $800 or more?

Yep..It will cost around $135- $165. It sounds like a great deal. BUT, Personally I won't get this one unless I see it in person. Good luck.

As long as everything checks out I would jump on it. Supply seems to be drying up

The guy seems pretty legit.

Where is the 100-200 shipping coming from? Everywhere that has given me a quote online says upwards of 200...
Is there some special place?

Generally the people who have already bought 8.8s say they get charged 100-200 bucks for shipping halfway 'cross the country.

Greyhound shipping, they say there is a 100 pound limit though, I don't know how much it weighs. Anyways, they quoted $120 for a 100lb package, I just checked.

Yeah I'd agree. It's pretty heavy... I had to move it around by myself so I know first hand
