Just got one this morning, depending on the way I have to package it for protection, ends up being between 60 and 75 bucks.

How much do you want for the unit?

Also, would you recommend replacing any seals on this, just in case?


thanks

I just pulled the unit a few weeks ago. It has never leaked, and the axle seals looked fine. If you want to replace them its not hard, but I wouldnt worry about it. Make me an offer on the unit, we'll meet up on it.

Honestly, I have no idea what to offer. Give me a reasonable price and I'll take it.

On another not: I just talked to someone at newgmparts.com (they wanted to let me know they didn't have some of the parts on my order), and they told me that my VIN indicates that my car didn't come with a factory sunroof! It sure as hell looks factory. Could it be dealer installed?

Most sunroofs on early model cars were aftermarket. 70% of all aftermarket sunroof sales are to dealerships.

I finally got it back!

A couple of notes:

The installer said he was a little worried about the lack of clearance (less than an inch) in relation to the sway bar and that the header sits lower than it should/could. He also couldn't get the resonator welded up because it was too long and it wouldn't fit up in the tunnel.

And, as you can imagine, the Quad rocks now. It's quite a bit faster and since I haven't put my new TB on, it still has a vacuum leak but sounds a helluva lot better than the old system

Wow, looks nice, but you need to wrap them or your going to find out real quick that your power steering rack boot will be melting.

Tips:

I need to wrap a fuel line that by the coolant hose with something too. The guy at the shop said I may need to also wrap some asbestos on the shift cables since they ARE touching a runner. :shock:

Exhaust looks well done. I spy couple badly rotten spots on the frame tho, those are going to need attention soon.

The exhaust looks nice. The bends are a little tight to not reduce flow and I would put a 2.4 heat wrap on the rack ASAP as its already melted. All the quad headers hang down too far...
