This is not a repair that should be undertaken lightly. If you have never
done this kind of work before, I would suggest that you do not attempt it
yourself. BUT FIRST, get a second opinion on whether the diff is the
problem. Try to find a competent mechanic and ask him or her to drive the
car and get his or her opinion.
My (very old) Moss catalog shows the ring gear and pinion as part no.
674-160 for the 3.7:1 ratio. I don't know what the availability is. The
ring gear and pinion are replaced as a matched set. I doubt that NAPA would
have one.
