good price on '78 12 bolt - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What is a good price on a 5 lug 12 bolt out from under a '78? I purchased one from my buddy with drums and all for $75. It seems to have about a 3.40 gear in it (by turning and counting) but I have not counted the # of teeth to see exactly what the ratio is. I figured when I tear up my 10 bolt under my '86 I'll rebuild the 12 bolt with new bearings, seals, 3.73 gear and posi. He had the old truck (wrecked) and I could not resist not getting the rear out from under it before it got junked. Maybe I didn't get jipped?
