    Iv just had 5.29s put in my front and rear differentials and the shop gave me back my stock 4.30 gear set. There in very good shape and the front is practically brand new. Are they worth anything, because there no good to me now and are just paper weights to me. Are they resellable???

    Nope, you should mail them to me to use as paper weights. Do a search in the market place forum. Depending on the condition I'm sure you can get better than scrap prices for them.

    If I were beyond just the planning stages for a prerunner -> 4x4 conversion I'd take them off your hands. My truck came with 3.56 gears.

    Well if your truly interested in them let me know and ill send pics of them to you. I will say this, the rear and especially the front are in really good shape. The front is practically brand new and the rear only has 100000 miles on it. There no use to me except for maybe a set of wind chimes :D

    PM for more questions

    I paid $150 for a 4.30 clamshell and $240 for an e-lockered 4.30 3rd. Someone would buy them if the price is right. The front would be harder to ship than the rear.
