Default 04 1500 Rear End Replacement Recommendationss

I have read many that have had problems with the rear end. Mine was leaking and I did not catch it in time. Replaced the bad seal, drained, and refilled. It whines and would like to replace it. Not sure if it is OK to post online dealers names as I have checked. What do you think???Junkyard, rebuilt one, or other. I bought the truck new and want to keep it going. Money is limited but, I don't want to go the cheap way and then end up replacing it in the near future.

I bought all internals from Jeg's when my pinion broken. Much cheaper than a used rear at junkyard.
