3.55 axles

Well been doing some serious thinking. Came to the idea of leaving the 4.10 under my 91 due to the limited slip rear end. So, I am goign to sell off the set of 3.55. What kind of price should I offer these for? I am located in southern wisconsin.
Thanks for the help

What are you selling?
Ring and pinion gears or whole axles?

Just the gears and diff. That way it can be shipped too. Or if someoen needs the whole axles I may part with them too. Was thinking of pulling the brake components off them to keep, then letting the rest go .

I bought a Dana 60 for mine. I rebuilt it completely with a LS unit and all the bearings, ball joints and tierod ends. It is already a 3.55 gear in it. All I need is time to stick it in.

The 60 is a straight axle solid housing.
The 50 is an independant front suspension with big hubs, usually found under extended cab trucks.
The 44 has small hubs about 3" across and was used in the regular cab trucks.
