sounds like it needs a new transmission and transfer case/front diff/whatever, or at least a very thorough rebuild. and a considerable amount of body work. and a new BOV (read up if you dont know what im talking about). and a tune. and a reallll good look over of the engine, possibly a teardown and a mild build, because it sounds like it’s been beat to SHIT
other than that, and the 4 in 5 possibility that it will blow up within 3 years, seems like an amazing car!

Front differential noise but is drivable when center diff is set to rear
Clutch is weak- slips in 5th and 6th"

Are you high?
It has transmission issues. That should be a red flag to stay away from something like that. It’s modded. Obviously someone beat the piss out of it. Don’t even waste your time. Find something un-molested.

Well…
If you want to rebuild the front diff…
Rebuild the transmission
buy a new clutch
rebuild the motor in a year
Then yea sure go look at it…
