Hey all! My 97 pathy rear wheel bearings had a catastrophic failure. Right rear bearings failed. What are my options? I am finding 4.3 ratio for much cheaper then the 4.6. From my understanding is all the drive axle splines are the same but the inner guts of the diff it self are what matter.. It appears that all the retaining holding my wheels together failed. Is there better year axels that will "bolt" on. Or should I try an find a 4.6 like one I have an direct swap then. Mine has about 203k miles.. some on eBay is a 130k miles.
