70 w-30 rear axle
I have a buddy that has a 70 w30 rear axle with 3.90 gears. for sale. I don't know anymore about it. he says he has the codes from the axle. and its legit. its NOT a w27 axle. His name is Kevin and his number is 814-323-5017. Its in his 64 f-85 and he wants to sell it because it doesn't fit right. I think he's asking $1500. drum to drum. I don't know anything about it. please call or text him with questions. Location is Erie,PA . Tell him Mike told you about it.

That is what "real" ones in good condition are going for, give or take.
There were a couple of guys who hung out on this site not long ago that would sell stamped / fraudulent complete and rebuilt rear axles so that made the supply seem plentiful. They also sold many other restamped 442 / W30 parts.
Carburetors, distributors, alternators, ect.
Real W-27 rears in good condition will sell for multiples of this amount.

Fyi
It is a 3.91 not a 3.90.
I have no problem with that asking price. Potential buyers can make an offer if they feel $1500 is too much. They aren't making any more of these.
The 70 Type O 12 bolt fits fine in a 64-65 Olds A body. One just needs rims with 1" additional backspace to compensate for the wider width of the differential vs the original narrower 10 bolt 8.2" differential.
