Rear end diagram?

[GregW]

I have a (new to me) 95 Mustang GT. There is a roaring noise coming from the rear end whether it is under load or not. I "assume" it is a wheel bearing (axle bearing ) that has or is going bad. I have never replaced a bearing on a Mustang but I "assume" it is the same (or close) to a GM product. Is this correct? Does anyone have a diagram I could reference? ( I do not have a service manual yet BTW :~>)

Ford dealer wants $500 to start (they want to tear it down and replace all the items they think need replacing) . I believe I can do it cheaper then that :~>

Any suggestions, thoughts or pointers appreciated.

Thanks,

greg

You can just go to an auto parts store and get a Chiltons, or another thing that I did, I bought a Ford Service manual on CD from e-bay. It has exploded view diagrams of pretty much everything.

As far as getting somebody else to do it, I had an Eaton posi, new axles and new bearings put in for $300 labor. Just ask around your area for a reputable drivetrain shop and go there.

its very easy to do, it good to have help. me and my brother replaced both bearings and axle shafts(bent a shaft) in about hour and half, it also good to have 4oz of friction modifer and synthetic rear gear oil.

If you are going to go that far, may as well do gears at the same time...
