So I blew up my front diff... Need to know what to replace it with

Some may remember my thread about my t-case being broken... Well that's not the case. after dropping the whole thing, and opening it up, I couldn't find anything wrong with it.

So on a hunch, I checked the oil in my front diff... Yup, chunks on the magnet.. I saw that with mixed emotions. On one hand I don't need a new t-case! But on the other, I need to put it back together now, and reinstall

But anyways, I know nothing about the front diff, I am pretty sure I have 4.30 gears, (99 Limited)

I only have an hour more with the truck, before I go home until Sunday so I need to figure this all out quickly. I'm not gonna mess with fixing it, just going to swap in a new one. Pretty sure I had vacuum actuated ADD.

Anyone know for sure??


Thanks! Ill make sure to post pics of the carnage when I get it!
