1st I thought it was the transmission , but the drive shaft still moves. And the only option is a new one from Toyota for $3,500.
$3500 to rebuild a differential?!?! That is insane. You can buy a brand new differential directly from Toyota for less than half of that. And it is not that hard to replace.

Used, you can get a whole axle assembly for $1200 all day long.
