As title say's, does 302 redirects pass some juice?
 
As opposed to a 301?
Yes.

From what I have read on WEB some guy's say that if the 302 will stay a long time live then google will threat like 301. So I'm a little bit confused.
 
It makes sense to me since it's fairly common for sites to use all kinds of redirects. 301, 302, and meta-refresh are all fairly common. However, since they also all have their intended use cases, maybe the algorithms are smart enough to determine the actual context of the link.
 
It does according to Google, the question is how much compared to 301?
 
Do not 301 redirect them if you are going to be recreating the pages. A 301 redirect indicates a permanent redirect to Google.

They would eventually figure out that the 301 redirect is no longer active, but it could take weeks or even months before you would see those URLs ever indexed again.

I would do a 302 redirect if the pages are going to be down for an extended period of time. If they are just down for a week or so, I probably wouldn't do anything.

Do you really have to take them down at all though?
