So it started making a grinding noise, come to find out my diff is no good, would like to either get a replacement, a aftermarket upgrade, or a rebuild kit, but i am having trouble finding the parts, if you could drop some links or websites that sell these sort of things that would be greatly appreciated.

1800 yea no, thanks for for your help though

 

You won't find a "rebuild kit", but you can buy the parts individually and make your own. That was the intention of the link...

 

Miles on the diff, if you don't mind sharing? has fluid ever been changed? I did mine around 50k and 120k but that's goin on 8-9 years ago and I am at 170k, so I actually got a quote from a dealership on fluid replacement along with my trans fluid. But nothing lasts forever. Good luck to you.

 

These diffs almost never go out are you 100% positive your rear diff is gone?

This is a bolt in aftermarket option

Your other choice for aftermarket is Ford 8.8 swap that will be around $2000k-$5000k. Your onmy option is to buy a slightly used diff or buy a new oem from dealership.

 

ohhhh okay i get you, THANKS!!!

 

210k and to my knowledge fluid never been replaced

 

yes i had a certified mechanic take a look at it he said the fluid is very glittery and is leaking

 

these rarely ever fail, even when not maintained. your best bet is to get one from a junkyard

 

some glitter is normal with rear ends, just because its leaking does not mean its bad I would get a second opinion. There are seals that can be replaced to fix the leaking and cleaning out the housing and filling with fresh fluid would be the first step before spending money on a rear end and swapping it over. Didn't you think that the carrier bearing bushing was going bad before?

 

to be honest it kinda happened out of nowhere, what are some indications of the carrier bearing bushing going bad ?

 

there would be excessive vibration while driving if you can look underneath the car you can see if the bushing has any cracks or damage
