Heres my new Toy!

Made an offer of 3800, guy countered at 4000, I accepted, his asking price was 4500, good deal imo.
Anyways, the truck:
1985 Toyota Pickup SR5 4X4 Extended Cab
• 22R-E fuel injected 4 cylinder
• New battery
• 5 speed manual transmission
• Does not leak or burn oil
• 5.29:1 gears
• Solid front axle
• 5” suspension lift
• Extended steel braded brake lines
• 35x12.50 BFG mud terrains with 90% tread remaining
• All black 15x8” wheels
• Speedometer and tachometer
• Power windows!
• Cruise Control
• Rear slider
• Grey and black interior
• Flip up sun roof
• SR5 bucket seats
• Smitty Built tube rear bumper with matching nerf bars
• Stainless steel diamond plated locking tool box
• Tinted windows (20%)
• Sony AM/FM/Single disc CD player
• Clinometer
• Bed liner
• Headman Header
• Good paint

Only thing I need to do to this guy is gear the front end, he only had the rear end done for 2WD. How much can I find 5.29 gears for? Ring and pinion gears (I dont know how to do gears) Want to put a flowmaster in, and do a tube bumper on the front, with a 5k budget I think I should be able to do all this and then some!
