I have only called 1 yard, they want 250.00 for my ratio.
I think i need new pinion bearings, as there is about 1/8" side to side slop. I thought it was just a bad seal, until i pulled on it. There is also my whining noise under acceleration, which would make sense with that much slop to me.
So i think at this point my options are
1: replace axle, with no real idea of condition of the axle (not that i know much about mine either)
2: replace pinion bearings. No idea how or how to set gear lash or preload. Im all for trying it though and learning how.
