Truck Axles

I have several semi truck drive axles to scrap. I've separated the brake drums, but am wondering if I need to remove the brake shoes in order to be paid top dollar?

Thanks!

call your yard ; )

Im sure the yard will want them drained, they dont like buying oil.
As far asbreaking them down further, for me it would depend on how they were being loaded and unloaded, if I'm loading / unloading by hand, i would take them as far apart as I can.
If I have machinery to load / unload leave them whole.

Oh and welcome, now go introduce yourself.
