    Rear end noise

    Start simple and go up. Check the fluid levels first. Front to rear. Sounds can be hard to pinpoint. You say you tow, drone sounds could be transmission. ??? Is it std or auto? Check your drive shafts for play, grease your links etc... Easy enough to do, save money and is all needed...

    Rear end noise

    I think what he was saying was get the 3rd member out before it tears up a set of gears. To which you have to "eat" the cost of. My thoughts are more diagnostic. See if you can identify where the noise is coming from. What does it sound like? Does it increase with speed? What makes it change...
