Chris,
A new (used) rear end would be the easiest and cheapest to do but won't
guarantee you get a good one. Since you have to pull it anyway, the amount of
work
may be close to what you would be into in the repair job.
When replacing the pinion bearing, the entire gear set will need to be reset.
This takes an expert. Several disassemblies of the set to get the right
backlash and preload in the ring gear. If you pull the rear end and break it
down, you are looking at posibly $200.00 plus parts to reset the pumpkin guts.
(my opinion only)
