Depends on the year of the 44. I am assuming he has C-wedges on it and is running stock radius arms. For a 77 front axle, that isn't a bad price. 78-79, way too high. Seen those for the $250 range. After 77 they used cast wedges instead of weld wedges. The welded wedge can be removed and relocated, though this is no concern to you. You can use a cast wedge axle, they just aren't worth as much. The rear axle is a touch high, if stock.
It is a fair amount of work. You won't gain much going to a 9", IMHO. It would be the front that is your biggest concern. If you can weld and have some tools, it can be done in a few weeks over the weeknends.
