Hi Bob, after more than 60 years it is maybe better to take the whole thing apart and give er some new bearings, seals etc.
I had to replace one gear, it was the bottom one that sat under water
!


On looking back at some of the frame picture it seems that both the front and rear driven axle are GM.....???? but it is a Ford.

You are right about the axles, if you come to Barry's place one day you will see the same axle as we have underneath his CGT, in the Ford books it is mentioned as GM design axle. With cast front cover
I just put the transfer case ( funny thing was that it carried a lot of GM part numbers) back to the chassis, and brought them back together after a separation of a couple months, now it is showtime, get that flattie goin' !!!!

Cheers and thanks for your interest!

Stefan
