1999 9-5 Differential Bearing Noise

I have a 1999 9-5 wagon with an automatic trans that had 132,000 miles on it when I purchased it. The car now has 181,000 miles and has developed a noise from the drive line. It is hard to describe the noise exactly but it definitely get louder as the drive line heats up. I disassembled the brakes and rotated the half shafts independently with the trans in neutral. The noise is definitely coming from the right ride of the trans and sounds like a bad diffential bearing. I have seen a driver bushing listed but no diffential bearing. I have few questions:
Are diffential bearing available and does anyone know a source?
Can the bearings be changed without removing the trans from the car?
If the trans must be removed does anyone know a source for a rebuild kit?
Thanks
