ebay seems to get 1500+ for them! At that is w/o brakes and axles...
Add $400 for the brakes... $100 for axles

Whatever buyers are willing to pay.

If I were you I'd check completed auctions on ebay, that gives the most accurate data about what people are paying. Lots of people price parts based on some other perceived criteria, for example: Rare Turbo trailing arms! It's from a Porsche! It says 930 on it -- right here! The result is they put some sort of a silly high price on them and they never sell, and then they end up just cursing the missing buyers for not paying top dollar.

I wouldn't start counting my money yet. I just checked, and there's a set out there now for $999, but this is the second time that they've been listed. They didn't sell the first time around at that price, so I doubt that they're worth much more then that, if even that amount.

That being said, December is not a big month for selling car parts on Ebay. January is a much better month to sell.

Wow, they must have gone up a whole lot since I last bought a pair. The last pair I bought included the swing arms, safety brakes, and hubs for $350. I thought that was high then. I've got a pair of driver side swing arms - just the bare arms, I'd better get out and sell. I'll be rich!

Oops. Just noticed these are 930. Mine were 911. Maybe they are worth that much.

Yes, just the arms with stub axles (hubs) installed. Look at auction number 8020497769 - this was bid up over $1200 and the seller didn't sell (I think he should have!). That is without the axles and rotors and calipers.

I just sold a set of 930 trailing arms with hubs to a friend at friend prices .. he was tickled pink (GD Racing/Gary's Porsche) to pay me 1,100 bucks for them.. I could have gotten 1,400-1,500 on the open market
