This is what I got. Lots of work is needed on this axle at the moment.
I read since my axle came out of a 85 it's should be a corp 10, and the fact it has these ears.

Crossover steering is the best way to set up steering for an IFS truck going SAS. It is a lot better than push/pull steering. It requires a dropped pitman arm (Superlift 1104 is the most common used).

A drag link (can be bought/made) to connect the steering box to the passenger side knuckle. The knuckle will need machined flat (must be a "flat top knuckle to do so) and a steering arm added (got mine from WFO, who also machined my knuckle to match).

Then the tie rod connects the two knuckles together.

basically that^ panhard ties from your axle to your frame so when you steer your axle doesnt move side to side

Thanks guys! And out of the SAS trucks ive seen in persont the majority dont have front drive shafts is there somthing insanely hard about switching the transfercase? Or are people just lazy?

hardest thing to swap to a pass side tcase is making linkage for it, driveshafts are hard because stock ones are pieces of crap in all honesty most people dont want to fork over the cash for a proper new one.

I was planning to make linkage like 88gmctruck's stepside but I won't know how hard it will be until I get to it. I really wonder if I have to modify the cross member too? He had to
