Is there a sleeve and bearing update to fix axle bearing wear on the axle wear surface? Have a link to the kit?

you can buy a repair bearing such as Timken TRP1559TV or SKF R1559 -- it places the rollers in the bearing on the unworn area of the axle shaft ,, on the 8.25 check the O.D. of the axle (area where the bearing rides) as well as the O.D. of the bearing itself to get the correct repair bearing ,, Rock Auto has them. if the wear is severe replace the axle.
Been reading bad reviews on the Timken. Seems like the design has changed a bit over the years.
Does anyone make new axles for this differential?

For anyone else looking it’s not on the website but Dr. Diff Can make custom ones in large bolt pattern or small bolt pattern for you for 385 shipped. I ordered a set
