Default RR end repair or replace - Recommendations?

Well...the yoke and u-joints snapped at the tranny, but when we put it back together the rr end was locking intermitantly. So...seems to be shot! I have the stock G80 and was hoping for some advice what to do? Obviously, money is starting to wear thin, but also after this pretty much then whole bitch will be rebuilt! I plan to stay with the stock gear ratio (4.1?) as I don't want the hassle of changing the t-case as well, and besides, I dont need to. Wonder if its not better/cheaper to just buy a whole new rr end than to have what I've got rebuilt? R/

A Eaton LSD costs about 450, I doubt you can find a hole rear end that cheap. Plus the rear end would still have the junk g80!
