Default Rear End Trouble/Need good driveline shop...

Hey guys,
I have a 1999 Ford Explorer. It has a rear end whine which apparently is caused by a failing pinion bearing. I can get the kit to fix this, but I would need someone to install it for me. Another suggestion I was getting is to get a rear end from a junk yard with low miles and replace the entire thing.

Can anyone shoot me suggestions or a good driveline shop that I can stop in and get it checked out?

With the pinion bearing worn, good possibilty this wore on the gears too. If it was me I'd swap the whole rear with a good salvage yard one with the unknowns of the current one.

Get with shaun from all american street car performance. He is on here as na306stang or john username tiffiny. I am more then sure they are beyond adequate to take care of your issues whether you change the gears and pinion bearing or replacing the whole axle.

Thanks Ryan!


Unless your wanting to rebuild the whole rear you won't need the whole kit, probably a good idea though. We can definitely take care of it!
