It all depends on how "rebuildable" your core is, for the trans.

as far as axle, It gets HAIRY, but it can be done, but you will need several special tools.

Like an impact that can develop a ton of torque to seat a crush pinion. and then an inch pound torque wrench.

Be sure to get a bunch of pinion nuts and crush sleeves.

I would have two sleeves and two nuts on hand.

Then you need a dial indicator as well as a magnetic mount, and then oil based paste paint from an art store, to see pinion and differential "mesh". then maybe you could do a gear swap.
I think I seen kits on ebay for gear swaps. But Oreilly's had all the nuts and sleeves I needed to do mine.

Above all else, your side gears may be worn and need replacing, I would look into changing all that at once if needed.
