Thanks to Matt, most of the purple truck is disassembled.

Driveshafts are removed
Torsion bar gone
Transfer case and it's crossmember removed
Shifter gone
And the tranny should be held in by one bolt ATM

Also swapped the 2 rear tires off the purple truck
Swapped hoods
Took the purple tail gate as mine will rust out in a year or so

Trannys completely out of purple truck. Now it's simply repeat and reverse.

Repeated.
Everythings removed from my truck.

Trannys back in. In place, a few bolts need to be put in. The crossmember that holds it in place is in as well.

Also swapped the third member into my truck, so I know have an LSD rear end.

I owe a ton of thanks to the guys whove helped, especially Matt.

Torsion bars been reindexed. Very very close to where the front end needs to sit. Im not sure if it's just an ilusion. I need to swap tires and measure, and maybe make some minor adjustments, but the worst of that is over.

Brake cylinder is replaced though whgere the line hits the T in the back, the T is no giving up the old brake line. Ineed to get a better set of pliers to latch onto the end

Aside from that the list of stuff left to do
-Swap front tires
-Battery back in truck
-4WD shifter lever
-A few wiring harnesses need to be plugged in
-Interior
-Front driveshaft
-Fill T-Case & Tranny with fluids

In doing my wheel cylinder I frigged up the rest of my brakes. I needed to redo all the hardware. God I hate drum brakes. There a complete pain in the ass and just a piss poor setup. As if theres any need for the over abundance of springs and pins and poorly designed hardware. Currently the truck moves under its own power. I need to bleed the brake lines and itll be drivable.

Add to that the fact that I misread the tranny fluid and over filled it and needed to pump it back out. That sucked as well. Seems like for every step forward I took this weekend I took a few backwards.

The only drivetrain issue I see is that the driveshaft rubs on the dust guard on the TCase. Gonna need to figure out that.
