And debating on if i should sadagon it..the back floor board where the two seats by the tailgate fold down is rusted out? Should i just take them out and fold those metal flaps down weld it solid and then slam roof ontop or should i try and get it to pack in?

If you can leaf, leaf. Flat stacks and run them fairly long. Keep frame and leafs straight, let body pack in. (Preferably, keep floor pan in tact and let the rest go in). Run low, let them break suspension hitting you.

How did you get it to pack so nice in the rear as opposed to going down?

Taking the tail gate out helps. Outside of that just dimple it. The 80s ford wagons don't have a problem going up like the 80s GMs.
