Default Attack of the one wheel wonder...

OK, so I was trying to drive up my driveway today in the mud so I tried driving with one wheel in the gravel so Id have enough traction to make it up, well that wheel may have been on solid ground but...SURPRISE!!!!!! the stupid thing wasnt spinning. Anyway, what Id like to know is when rebuilding an 8.8 inch rear end, what parts do I have to order and how much should I expect to pay to have this done. The only reason Im ordering them myself Is to ensure that everything is replaced, not just whats broken. Also im going to go ahead and order a set of 3:73's while Im at it.
