Front Axle Replacement (upgrade??) availability

Thanks for the help on this one, I really appreciate it.

Here is two pics of the front. that is hte broken CVaxle on it, yes, being held up by a coathanger, tried to get it close to how it normally sits. The shock and swaybars are beatup and bent due to the first CV breaking and spinning out of control.

I started pulling the diff bracket of as suggested by turdle to check if it was bent. I pulled the vertical bolt out that connects it to the bracket on the frame of the truck.
I then attempted to remove the bolts that hold it to the side of the diff. My impact couldn't budge it. When I went to put the vertical bolt back in, it no longer lines up, it is about 1/4 inch off (it moved toward the passenger side of the truck). Lots ofpulling, pushing, prying, and I can't get that to line up now either.

Anyways, here is the front stance. Let me know if these are good, or if I need some from further back.
