    Worth Rebuilding Rearend?

    So my rear axle tubes are pretty rusty, the only place it leaks is the cover which I'm sure it's time to change the fluid (if there is any). Would it even be worth it to mess with it?

    1989 Silverado Stepside (ss350)

    I have been in the market for a truck for quite some time and I came across this pile last week and I just had to go out and see it. Knowing it had issues but it ran, I purchased it for a measly $1100. It was sad that the slave cylinder was bad and the clutch would not disengage so I thought...
