well i got the rear axle mostly rebuilt, going to be putting it up for sale, along with my spare rims, leaf springs, and possibly some other junk i got laying around.
got some rear springs for free that arent so saggy.
when i tore apart the rear i found pieces of blown gears. checked the diff, the diff is good, you can tell its been opened up and re sealed, so they must have blew the rear end and threw a different diff in it. yada yada, wire brushed and cleaned the axle, then hit it with a few coats of paint.
found a good deal and picking up an 85 front housing, difff, and inners in a few hours, gonna use that for my sas, and either sell the 83 front housing or keep it for when my brother finally gets ready for his sas.

and on a side note, he is out of town for a few weeks so i'll have to wait for my rear bumper, i'm thinking about talking him into a swingout tire gate.
