Strip it down to the axle tube and sand blast it...you might have a few usable/salvageable parts, but looks rusted pretty bad.

yes big t this i do lol but heres a nice update just cause i couldnt let it sit out back and not get playied with....

got the drivers side calper off and boy was that fun it was sized on there but i got it off then i started to mess with the hub just cause i fingered out that it locks but dont wanna unlock you know go free so i pulled off the hub and what do you know it was filled to the rim with grease so i think after i rebuild it she will be sitting fine!!!

First thing I would do is disassemble it and make sure those shafts slide in and out easily...... since you said you dont know about the origination of the axle

Get THEE Hubs to Wab FAB ASAP. Don't screw those up. Well worth it to have Brian Re-build and powder coat for that matter. As far as rust goes. Meh... I have seen MUCH worse... (Ahem TC)

Seriously, strip it down to the knuckle balls, pull the diff and clean that thing up for an SAS (sandblast it). Cut off all the unneeded brackets, weld on the new ones (put the diff back in before welding) and then Industrial Rustoleum the thing.

All you need is knuckle rebuild kit and other parts depending on how rusted they are (wheel hubs, spindles, calipers, manual hubs, etc. )

dirtoyboy

See if you can get it as clean as mine.
