J, with all of the spacers, shims, critical clearance and other factors, I
opted for a rebuilt diff 6 years ago from VB.  I never regretted the
decision.

Good luck.

Hello Listers, Once again I am in need of assistance. Recently I noticed a
whining coming from my differenial. I considered buying another but had
decided to rebuild it instead. But, before I tear into the differential I
would like to make sure it does need a rebuild. It makes a whining noise
when driving down the road. While accerlerating the sound is more
pronounced, when riving at a constant speed it is a low steady whine and
when decelerating it seems to go away. 

The price of a pinon and ring gear is outrageous so I wanted to check here
first before committing that much money into something that may not be
needed.

As always all help and responses are appreciated.
