I received mine today. They are in VanSteel boxes and so marked on the trailing arms. Dust shields are a little bent but at this price I'm still smiling.
blueL48, Thank you very much for the tip.

blueL48

J Bennett

No axle flange so if I was checking those I would install the flange, torque it and check both the end play and run out.
I am not saying there’s a problem with them but I have been doing this for too many years not to check any work that I get in.
otherwise you got a good deal.Van Steel made their money and looks like Ecklers took the hit but when large businesses move they cut a lot of losses. I had so much inventory to clear out when the factory I worked at for 30 years sold. I was giving away full stock of maintenance supplies to get rid of them and the just wrote it off

blueL48

thanks for the advice. waiting new flanges to come in then i’ll check.

You got lucky twice! First was actually getting a smokin deal from Ecklers,second was UPS/Fed Ex not totally destroying your goods.

blueL48

you ain’t kidding. fed ex has lost car parts and rear differential on me before.

blueL48

was just on ecklers and it says there on sale again.

BarrelCurve

Must have missed it again. Got a link? This one doesn’t show those…

blueL48

click on them and it show the sale price

BKarol

When I put it in the cart for $781 it changes to $2600 at check out. Must be system problem.

blueL48

that sucks. i called there salesman when i ordered mine. they might honor it?

BarrelCurve

I spoke to two different people. They said it was on sale for the ones that were currently in their warehouse and they’ve been 100% claimed at this time. So yes, the $2600 price is the right one now… Will have to wait for another sale, I guess….

The axles in the pictures appear to be Spencer Forge, which were commonly available, USA made, very good axles prior to Covid. Not so much today, so that was a good deal. Look for a logo on the hub, if you see an S with an arrow you got the Spencer's. If no logo, not Spencer's, thick hub ring- imported.

You can always price out the parts to see what it would cost today, less labor. Common parts like rotors you can get at NAPA and save shipping. Many of the axles sold today are imported but a good set of GM axles are better. Various options for offset arms are available- Van Steel, Tom's, Global West, Ridetech.

So the axles may date these then. They are old stock that has been sitting on the shelf for a couple years. That's why they moved them out, below cost.
Terrific deal for you guys that jumped on them!
I'll bet if you order a set now, they are not planning on stocking them anymore, and they will have to be backordered from the mfgr, Van Steel.
That is exactly what so many suppliers are doing these days, except Amazon and Summit Racing. Those two continually amaze me at what they have in stock, and how fast they deliver stuff! Amazon stocks a lot of Auto Parts.

I saw just the arms for like $550 about a month and a half ago... Thought it was zip or eklers... or course it was right after I scored a set of new replacement arms for $260 shipped off ebay from a shop that had them sitting around.

places do clearance the stuff after a while. I bought my borgeson steering kit for $500 shipped from zip thru ebay last spring.
