I would say no
That's a cone type sure grip and while it's not a bad unit it's not rebuild able Well it sorta is. To have to do some machining and it's good to go again. For awhile.
Unless you need the other items id pass. The ratios are poor and one is broken so it makes me question the condition of the s/g.

If its a 2.89, yes, its one of one 18/52 R/P tooth count? Otherwise, No, plenty of other bigger fish in the pond.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Not worth 300, I'd say the SG unit it worth 100. Value the rest at what you want.
Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat Hear my motor screamin while I'm tearin up the street

the sure grip may be worth $100 but only if it's not junk ... but it's a cone type so it's already JUNK by design.

It was still locking up and making traction in the end despite the locking screw for the cross pin breaking. When that happened the pin spun in the case and ate the diff. However, the cones were still holding the axles together.
That happened because the spiders on that shaft had welded them selves to the shaft, it wasn't in as good a shape as you think ... but at least you had fun ...
