"I need to use the RPUT command since I am transferring a series of directories ..."

The only rput() in your code is: 

$sftp->rput($source_ftp_file, $destination_ftp_file, ...

[download]

If $source_ftp_file and $destination_ftp_file are supposed to be directories, then they are poorly named: consider $source_ftp_dir and $destination_ftp_dir.

"... and the RPUT is working, ..."

Your original post said: "When sending the files over, the target files are being wiped out with a 0 bytes but not replaced with the source file.". That doesn't sound like it's working.

"... but I need to have the target server receive the files with permissions set to CHMOD 777."

Both put() and rput() have various options relating to permissions. I've already supplied a link to the documentation.
