If you think that is expensive, better stay stock with whatever bronco flavor you buy...some bolt in aftermarket jeep axle assemblies push 8k...I'm building a front dana44 to go under my 69 bronco, will have over a grand just in parts, and that's Penny pinching.hoo doggie is that assembly expensive...
Yep, they do the same with us.Summit Racing is mostly just a drop-shipper for this sort of part. They simply have extended their existing parts agreement with Ford to include these part numbers.
True Ryan, like the Corvette tax, and the Jeep tax, we'll now have the Bronco tax. Everything is twice the price.If you think that is expensive, better stay stock with whatever bronco flavor you buy...some bolt in aftermarket jeep axle assemblies push 8k...I'm building a front dana44 to go under my 69 bronco, will have over a grand just in parts, and that's Penny pinching.
Not a tax, the price on those axle assemblies are relatively cheap...when Currie or Dynatrac start building upgraded replacement axle assemblies, those will be 5k and up...for those with a ranger, those axle would swap right for deeper gears and lockersTrue Ryan, like the Corvette tax, and the Jeep tax, we'll now have the Bronco tax.

There have been times in the past when needing parts for one of my older Corvettes, I would cross shop for Impala parts. Many were the same at a much lower price.
