I suck at buying used truck parts. Both axles ended up having nothing usable other than the housings and hubs (new R&P gears, carriers, bearings and seals). The transmission got new 2nd & 3rd gears on the mainshaft, 3rd and 4th on the countershaft and then new shifter forks. Oh the top cover parts were all rusted into one piece as well. It is pretty satisfying to make old rusty junk nice again, but I certainly could have picked better pieces to start with.
