Well, they will all work - depending on your skill level.. 
What did they come out of? Are the spring under or spring over? What is the spring spacing? This are the BIGGEST questions?????
You will most likely need to change spring perches at the least and also cut and reweld the front wheel mounts (castor).
Depending on what they were in will let us know what you will need to make them work..

You cannot link to images on your local PC- you have to use the 'attachment' option of the forums....
Use the attach attachment option... http://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f16/how-attach-images-post-1270/

A small flag goes up here.
those housings with both those lockers should go fo so much more
Bring a mechanic with you to check out the internals of the diffs.
He will lso be able to tell you haw much it will take to rebuild those things, Axle work is not cheap.

As Baja said the lockers and gears are worth 3 times that much, so why are they this cheap. If the are in good shape yes they are worth it.
Saying they are from a rock crawler tells us nothing except they might be set up for coils. We would need pic's and some measurments for a better answer.
Some obvious things to check would be bearings and backlash also look at the housing for any damage.
