To get the parts new costs upwards of $500 just for the sungears, then another couple for the clutches if you want to replace them.
This failure is usually cause by inproper installation of the thrust bearing or excessive wear of the bearing. Not uncommon and many times leads to the destruction of the front differential as well. If I were you, I would try and source the parts used and replace the thrust bearings w/ a new one of the appropriate size
