Which rearend do I have?

I have an 87 F150 w/ a 5.0 and a C6 tranny. I'm wondering if I have a dana 40 rear end. On the axle tag it says I have 3.73 gears and limited slip.

Next question. I'm planing on parting out this truck since the motor is almost gone and I'm gonna start a new project on 58 truck. Don't have room in the garage so I gotta get rid of some stuff. How much should I expect to get for this rear-end and how much for my tranny. The tranny is a C6 and has a transfer case also.

c6 should be worth some. i payed 250 for my 8.8 rear end.

the 8.8 will have the bolts in the back, the 9 has bolts in the front....
check your bolt count on the cover of the diff, and compare it to an 8.8 and a dana 40.
