They show up for sale pretty regularly on kijiji right here in Ontario. I would look there before spending the time and money going to the US. But like anything when it comes to heavy duty axles....expect to pay good money for them. Can some times be cheaper to buy a whole truck then just the axles.

Thanks Alain, thats what I was thinking. A whole truck sometimes is cheaper and wreck myself. I guess it just comes down to time and price.

Here is someone selling the bottom half of a 5/4ton. It isn't an M1008, but it might do depending on the project you have in mind.

He was at $1,200 a while back. Now is down to $800.

If you don't want to bring it all back home, just bring it here (we are about 20-30mins away), pull the axles and leave us the rest. We could use some of the parts for our 5/4ton.

Is an idea.
