What to pay for core 915
I need a 915 box and will have it gone through by my guy. My mechanic has one with bad 2 gear synchro but doesn't know what to charge me for it. He said he thinks they go for around 750 as a core what do u think? It's a Carrera box mid 80s

I paid $500 a few years ago when SC was $10K. Now that the SC is double that, the 915 core is going to cost more. I would say $750 is fair,

$750 is a decent core price. Just make sure it matches the stub axles in the car, assuming that they are present. If not you will need to find a pair.

I think of my 4000+ posts a review would suggest that I am generally helpful, when that is what a member wants. PML was looking for trouble all week.

be sure the pinion roller bearing race isn't loose in the diff case, and that it has a good diff, and no scored gear sets. then it's worth buying.

Come to think of it, the $500 jobbie I bought 5 years ago did have a spun bearing race. Even though it was all working, once I tore into it, it got a spun race.

Since he is buying it for his mechanic to rebuild it he can put a condition contingency on the deal. It will be torn down.
