New to Me 1994 4Runner W/ Issues

OK, just to let you know, I am currently stationed in Germany with almost zero access to parts stores.

I just bought a 94 Runner and after replacing brake cylinders noticed I am going to need a full exhaust system soon. I also saw that the R/S CV boot is shredded, and the L/S CV shaft is not there. It appears to be missing the side gear shaft (stub shaft). the tube is there, but missing some bolts. It appears to have a newer transfer case and new front calipers.

I really need to fix this truck, and with the government employee furloughs this absolutely has to be done as inexpensively as possible.

I am a total NOOB to 4Runners and I am far from being an automotive mechanic. I have a Haynes manual and am desperately searching for an affordable FSM.

It appears I am begging for your help, as I am at a total loss as to what I will need to get in order to make this truck safe to haul my kids around in.

Does your axle look like this "Manual Hubs"

Or this ADD Automatic Differential Disconnect

Which #'s are you missing?
 
It appears to be intact now that I had a chance to look at it a bit closer. Just missing CV shaft and some bolts. It is the ADD, though.

Not too bad for a $450 purchase. Now just to get it completely road worthy and safe enough to haul the crumb snatchers around to the lakes and rivers.
 
Not bad at all!

If you can't afford to get the leather seats redone you can do like I did, and go with Cover King custom seat covers.

Here's what they look like ---

Note: they are not water proof, but do hold up well to the elements.
