so that price with any kind of standard tower coupon they email to you, and you're looking at $120. not bad for axles and a gearbox.

Well think of it as, Ya get the axles and gearbox, then can sell the stock rims and tires, body, chassis, shocks, etc.. and probably end up getting the axles and gearbox for pretty cheap.

Not really. Most of that WK stuff is worth next to nothing on eBay.
