Default My rear end is dead!

The rear end on my 2001 F150 is about to die. The seal started to leak and I ran it out of oil before I caught it. Now it howls like crazy. I've been trying to find a drop-in differential on line with no luck. Does anyone know where I can purchase one.

Thanks

A good salvage yard should have one. This repair is not cheap, you might be able to get a low milage rear end from a low milage wreck. There should be plenty around. Try a good local shop that does truck work and get their 2 cents.
