GR,
I agree with you. I bought eight of them for $5 apiece. Plus shipping. I
also bought an m151 differential that was supposed to be brand new, but it
was a rebuild at Tooele Army Depot. I haven't put it on, and the price was
right for a new one, but people have used ones for much cheaper. He screwed
me too.
Caveat Emptor!
Jason
