Rear end whine

I just got finished installing a used 4 bolt lsd rear in my Gvr4. On the the way home I noticed a loud whining noise from the rear end that wasn't there before.

My question is , should I attempt to rebuild or just look for another pumpkin ? If rebuilding , who has some good parts links and spec links ? I searched a few forums and didn't find much. I'm going to assume that finding another pumpkin will be the cheaper route.

Did you just replace the diff and axle cups or did you do a whole subframe swap?

Point being that it could be a wheel bearing. The rears are pretty simple to replace.

Diff,axles ,and cups only.

I'll double check the wheel bearings anyway, I guess you never know.
Thanks for the reply.
