Like the title says... Does anyone know where/if I can get my Auburn unit rebuilt in MA. Also looking for a ballpark figure if this is all possible.
Not being able to get sideways sucks.

How much do used rear's go for? There's other options too. There's the SLP Zexel Torsen OEM replacement which is ~200 bucks. It won't wear out. In your situation I'd get the Torsen
If your set on another Auburn, they have a DREX program where you can get your diff replaced for 100 bucks whenever it wears out, though not sure how much you will wear out your diff if you don't race. http://www.auburngear.com/aftermarket/drex/
There's certain qualifications for it though, and in your case you might have to buy another Auburn at full price first.

Auburn used to have what they called the DREX program. You send them your Auburn and they send you a brand new unit, rather than rebuilding. Can't recall the price, but it wasn't bad. Might want to look into that.

). The Torsen might be the way to go.
Yeah just get the torsen. What's wrong with that? It's a good differential. Your not racing right, just doing street burnouts and stuff? If you plan on going with 400+ hp soon, you might want something different but I'm assuming if you didn't have enough to buy my wheels, you won't have enough for 400+ hp 
EDIT: -1 point for me on the wheels comment. I confused you with another guy. oops
