It was a complete swap. Only thing done on the 01 rear was fluid change. No internal work.

I suggest putting new bearings in. Carrier bearings, if worn will make the thing howl while turning. It puts more pressure to that side and the bearing is shot.

Just talked to the mechanic today. Not sure when he'll get that done now. Does the '01 T/C like an '03?
