As Art said, find an appropriate used rear end from the bone yard (non-ABS). Typically, the rear end assemblies (the whole thing) run around $200 to $300. The KEY to making the swap easy is to have the E-brake cables intact and detached from the handle in the floor when the axle is removed. If the bone yard cuts the cables, add two frustrating hours on each end of the axle to reconnect your E-brake cables.
