What year is that truck? Looking at all that rust it looks really old for being in a dry climate.

possible pinion bearing failure? Looking at your pictures from the axle shaft failure and maybe some of those pieces could be part of a bearing cage?? With all that debris wandering around in the diff I wouldn’t be surprised if there was bearing damage.

I wouldn't throw any more parts at that rear end. Replace it, full stop. There is something bent or way out of spec in it if you keep eating axles, and now a destroyed pinon seal. Those things just don't up and go that bad that quick.

And modify the truck to suit your driving style. Or accept that you're going to ruin parts if you keep beating the truck to death.

Simple, narrow an 8.8 our of an f150. Or go for a 9.75 rear end. Cheaper in the long run. Not being a smart ass just giving a real solution. Or buy an f150 but that is a bad answer.
