Here's some info and useful stuff I found when looking at 39 fury:

From what I've found - there are a lot of gear options at 39 including dungeons (shift-J really helps see the stats on 39 gear), BG crate gear, dungeon satchel gear, BoEs, and heirlooms. You'll want to find a combination of them that reaches the approximate secondary stat goals that you set for yourself. Don't be afraid to lose str for secondaries due to double crusader. Which secondaries you use is up to you and can depend on your weapons.
For weapons, start out with heirlooms as you farm the scepters. Eventually you can look into jackhammers or blades of hanna, but those are very rare/expensive.
20% haste/10%crit/10%verse example - https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/bleeding-hollow/Omniçide
more balanced build example - https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/undermine/Chøps
jackhammer build - https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/darkspear/hamslamwich
You can also go full crit (big burst that gets through healing, but lack of haste can cause issues with CDs and crusader procs), or a crit/verse build (focuses on maximizing scepter procs, same lack of haste stuff).
I went with a 20% haste build and ended up with https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/boulderfist/mariefury if you want to see gear that is completely obtainable (a couple of my enchants need work and my leg enchant is GFd - but should give a good baseline).
Head - Heirloom gives 1 more stam than dungeon options. Can use dungeon options or halloween helm for diff secondaries.
Neck - Probably dungeon to get max secondaries, otherwise heirloom has the potion
Shoulders - Heirloom for the best enchant
Cloak - Theres an ilvl 44 BoE - start checking AH for https://www.wowhead.com/item=7544/champions-cape
Chest - I think heirloom gives 1 more stam than dungeon options. BG crate is also great.
Bracers - Lots of options.
Gloves - Lots of options.
Belt - Lots of options.
Legs - Heirloom to get the good enchant.
Boots - Lots of options.
Rings - Probably dungeon options for the secondaries.
Trinkets - The mara trinkets (10str/10secondary) are great. There are several solid options though depending if you want str/stam/secondaries. https://www.wowhead.com/item=88358/lessons-of-the-darkmaster fell victim to the trinket nerfs for pvp, so it only gives 15 str on a long CD, which I'd argue you're better off going with https://www.wowhead.com/item=18370/vigilance-charm instead.
Weapons - Heirlooms to start while you farm (great secondary boost early on as you're gearing up, can be used later for crusader swaps too), then https://www.wowhead.com/item=17766/princess-theradras-scepter when you get them. Then you can look at finding jackhammer for its insane procs (and go a 0-haste build like hamslamwich) or blade of hanna which has really high weapon damage.
A lot of the slots are going to be up to you, your secondary goals, and what you have for other less-versatile slots (cloak, weapons, trinkets, heirlooms).
Hope that helps!

Amazing thanks
The Jackhammer build looks insane, i'll go for that!
I applaud your enthusiasm. Jackhammers are rare and expensive. Very rare. Very expensive. I only know of 1 warrior with 2 of them. Jackhammers are a great stretch goal, but go for scepters first =P

Oh hell yea, I got used as an example in a @necroaqua thread. Life goal complete!
Just a note:
You dont need a guide. Gear your toon with dungeon drops and BG crate gear however you want to gear it. Fury is so busted at 39 that as long as you've got dual crusader, youre gonna truck fools. Even terrible warriors who can be baited into pummeling hearthstones do exceptionally well

There isn't a guide because its pretty easy. You won't get Jackhammer without IRL pockets &/or you've already been chasing one for 1 year+. Hanna is a huge stretch goal too, because while not nearly as expensive, unless you've been in the bracket farming for a hot minute out in the deserts of Silithus with other 39s or you've got a decent chunk of gold or plan on transferring, you probably won't see that either.
Scepter provides that RNG burst window that gets your Execute off. It's still a tier 1 choice, and I'd argue til I'm blue you would want Scepter/Hanna anyways and not DW stat sticks.
As for secondaries, the heart wants what the heart wants, as long you aren't dead. Don't make the mistake of undervaluing vers in any of your builds. 0% vers on any class is kind of memeable. Since it's been a while I might revv up some SimCraft plot graphs again and write a brief synopsis on decaying stat priorities for Fury.
