Some of the previous posts got me wondering.
I have done the swap in my 3/4 ton from the original 4.57 gear set to the 4.10 gear. I was thinking about building a box to seal up the old gear set to keep for, well, just to keep I guess. Boy, that will be a heavy box to move around big_eek. I know the bigger truck gears, 5.11's, are more desirable to the rock crawler crowd and could be sold but I don't think that's so for the 4.57's.
So I would like to ask, what did you do with your gears from your truck? Keep them? Scrap them?

Still have mine from from the 4.10 swap a year or so ago. Ran em on Craigslist for $250 and got one call, sent pics and told him it was an open rearend (not a locker). Never heard back. Still have'em oiled up and in a feed sack to keep shop dust off.

Well you might want to sell the pinion gear. A new one from NAPA (yes you can get one there) sells for $610.

Can’t begin to tell you how much I hate the name Stovebolt.
