Hey guys so I have a 2015 Ram 1500 just got it back from the dealer and the shaft coming out of the differential on passenger side splines are worn down along with cv axle splines. They told me I can't replace the shaft and the differential will run me 2,700 and 2,800. What are my other options here ?

That’s just the cost of the transfercase or is that installed ?
about 1100.00 less on eBay for used but they have a little more for shipping
if you have a salvage yard nearby I’d check their prices.

That's just for the differential. The total would be 2700-2800 plus 5.5 hours of labor

This is why we all do the Gen 3 front diff swap. The Gen 4 front diff is a pile of absolute junk !

You can do this DIY in your driveway
