Question Rear end swap

OK guys, I could use some more help.....Here are pics of the rear end on my truck.....from what I could tell, I believe it is a 4:56 rear end .....is this right?

I would like to go to something that would run a little better for gas, like something in the mid 3's.........would it be cheaper to put a used rear end or would it be better to replace a set of gears.......

I'm tired of the motor screaming at 50 mph.......




I am also assuming this is a Dana 44, or am I wrong?

thanks for the help
