a little research would have served you well on the fuel pump issue.
There is an excellent thread on the early AWD fuel pump replacement:

You can do the job quite cheaply if you have the time and ambition.
I actually have a spare AWD fuel pump assembly (with a pump) that I need to sell (it was sent here by mistake when I ordered something else) so let me know if you want to buy it. I will sell it for cheap and you will pay to ship it.
As for the prop shaft, I think pretty much any machine shop should be able to do the work you want done. The carrier bearing is not hard to replace at all (I've done it at home using pretty simple tools) and the hard part seems to be keeping the driveshaft balanced (ie: keeping the two halves aligned when you put them back together). A machine shop or a driveline shop will know exactly how to do this and may even be able to balance it for you.
Why do you want the CV joints replaced on the ends? They are pretty expensive. ~$300 each. They could probably do to be regreased, but this is pretty inexpensive. Pop the end caps off and you can pull the whole joint apart if you want to. I completely disassembled one joint to regrease, and decided it was too much work. For the second joint I just heated my grease up (so it would flow good) and poured/squished some into the joint. I did take the cap off for this but you really don't need to - just pour it right down the big center opening. Pulling the cap off let me really push it into the joint though.
Also, with vise and basic shop tools you can do all of this yourself.
When you get the old bearing off you can take it to a local bearing place and order a new one.
You can buy CV grease at most auto stores - make sure to only use real CV grease in CV joints.
You can take the u-joint in the center apart on your own too, but mark it on both halves so you know how to line it up in the balanced position when you put it back together. There are lots of sites that show how to get u-joints apart with a vise.
I'm sorry I can't help you with your ABS problem. How do you know the sensors all work? was the tech who tested them not able to tell you why the system as a whole isn't working?
