Rear axel complete, how much is too much?
I've found a complete 83 GSL axel with disk brakes at a junk yard. But I think that they are asking to much. How much should I expect to pay for a complete axel and disc brakes?
My goal is to add limited slip rear end with disc brakes to my 80SA.

150$ ish. Depending on condition.
Local yard gets 100 for them.
I went to a yard a few weeks ago and they wanted $700 and I had to pull it., I laffed at the guy.

Keep Looking
Yeah, $150ish is about right. I added and 83 GSL rearend to my 85 GS a couple of years ago and that is what I paid.
BTW, isn't there some issue with brake line thread sizes between pre-83 and 83,84,85 cars. You might want to research this, but I may be remembering it wrong. It's been a couple of years since I did my research.

79 has a differnt thread than 81 and later.....
the rest of the years are the same if i remeber correctly.
dont forget 84-85 rear ends are a little differnt than pre 84 rear ends.

150 dollars at the most...for a pull it yourself junk yard. Maybe 2 or 250 for a rear end pulled FOR you. PS: I bought a complete running 85 GSL at an auction for 350 dollars...pulled and swapped the LSD rear (with my standard rear) and a bunch of other good small parts. Turned around and sold the whole car (smogged) car for 1200 dollars. FYI
