Complete 1981 beams, radius arms and 6 bolt knuckles w/ calipers no good I'm sure.

1996 ABS pump.

Trying to decide what to do with them.

Are they worth anything?

Don’t throw them out! Haha I’ll take the 81 stuff if your gonna just chuck it. I bet you could get a couple hundred for it though

Yeah, I'd jump on to take um for free too! Like Brian said though, the beams are worth a bit with the bolt on 3rd member/axle. You'll probably get $300 or so for the beams.

I bet he bought the beams specifically for the thirdmember. Idk where you can get $300 for the beam cores. Usually around $100. Stock radius arms are pretty much scrap.

Sorry, when I refer to complete beams I'm including the 3rd member. I ASSumed he was too. He may not be. I've always sold my beams complete. In the 6 or more sets I've sold I've always had the 3rd go with them. Then again none of mine were ever 80-82... I also never got below $150 for mine and could always get $150 in a heartbeat for them if I wanted them gone right away. $250 was readily doable 5-7 years ago when I was doing it regularly.

Guess I should have clarified the 81 beams do not include the 3 bolt chunk. Maybe my question should be.....are the early model beams any better or worse than the late model beams?

Not any better or worse that I know of. The beams are pretty much the beams = same stamping over the years. $100-150 should be good for um.
