MY 12.0 ET was using stock USED 12-bolt axles with C-Clips. A risky venture each run, Butt I used...

Resale value of stock axles? Good luck. All the ones I've seen have visible wear in the area the bearing rides on; might as well say that they're scrap.

Aftermarket axles are on the order of $220 and up; BEWARE of aftermarket axles that have too much distance between the C-clip groove and the end of the axle shaft. The ones I bought are going to have to be cut down in order to slide the pin back in. PITA.
