Axles:
Dana 60 front "spooled"
14 Bolt rear "welded"

Are you using the retainer clips that came with those pins on the steering ram? If so I would come up with a plan eliminate them before a stick or the local mud bog removes them and a pin falls out leaving you with no steering. Maybe weld a heavy flat washer on one end so it only comes out one way and drill a hole in the other end to use a big cotter pin.??
Had a meeting w/ Iggy today to swap parts!
Picked up a new crank for the spare engine....
Say goodbye 2.06 valves & hello 2.18's!
Goodbye 1.72's & hello 1.88's!
Also new valve stem seals & springs....
Also 3 spare thumbs rods for the current engine should things go south.....
And finally a set of car rods for the spare engine.....
Went to get the main cap stud kit installed and broke the damn alan head socket off in the second one i did, ran them down finger tight and just a little snug w/ the socket and it broke clean off!!!
But was able to get the rest installed w/o an issue....
New electric water pump...
Also got the new alt bracket in the mail that'll mount off the new electric water pump!
