Diagram of the front differential.

[acwdrw]

Hi, I have a 1999 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0L 4WD with a whining noise in the front end, I have changed the front driver's side hub assembly and the fluids in the front differentail and transfer case. I will be changing the passenger side hub next, but would like to look at a diagram of the front differential if anyone has access to one.
