You can't buy the 4.30 gear set for that much. It doesn't sound to bad to me provided the rear diff is in good shape. The rims are kinda rare also so $300 sounds OK if the tires are usable but then again its your money so its ultimately your decision.

Yeah, depending on the condition both those prices are not too far out of line.

Although I do think that $300 for the diff and $200 for the wheels is max. of what I would pay.

I have seen the rims go for $200. Although if I had the $$$, I would not mind paying $300 for em. Hell, those are the rims I drool over the most!! And $400 for the differential???? That is a little nuts. I would offer no more than $300, at the most.

$400 for the diff is way too much.&nbsp Tell em to **** off...&nbsp $150-$200 is about average.
$300 is a little high for the rims but not unheard of.&nbsp Those stock 16" rims have a real high demand on them...
