    Default 03 R/T Stock rear end

    Rear end whining for the last 50,000 miles when I bought it. Thinking of having it repaired.
    Estimate of Cost? I'm sure I'm not a virgin. One of you pros will know.
    Thanks a bunch folks.

    You probably need a new ring and pinion gear set which will be between $400 and $500 plus labor to remove and replace.
    For the whole deal you would be looking at $1000.

    If the gears look decent and brgs. ok , these trucks come from factory with the pinion too deep by .003 to .004 majority of the gear sets will set up with .030 shim and .006- .008 backlash. If gears and case are true, some aftermarket gear sets have issues getting decent pattern. this is a starting point/t smile:
