diff carrier bearing on way out

Well I just got a message from my mechanic mate who said the carrier bearing on my diff is on the way out.

Tends to whine and vibrate a little at 65kph. Common issue on the AU's apparently.

So I was thinking, while Im getting the bearing replaced, is it worth me converting to LSD and sticking a 3.45 ratio in it, or something else?
