    Thank you! Thanks to your video, this 51-year-old woman was able to change her first rear pinion seal. No more dripping under the differential, and seems to be driving fine.

    I am a retired mechanic in Australia. I have seen many vehicle repair clips out of America however, I have never seen anyone as though as you, it reminds me of how I was taught many years ago. Keep up the good work. Regards Bill Caddy, Bundaberg, Queensland, Australia.

    Remember to ALWAYS check the vent. Lots of times, the vent gets clogged, and the diff can't vent, and the oil finds the weakest link; pinion seal or axle seals, to vent the pressure inside the diff.

    Personally I would normally replace the crush sleeve and outer bearing/race doing a pinion seal (gets damaged during the removal of the pinion gear). But it would be a good idea to measure the preload using an in-lb wrench before and after if your not replacing the crush sleeve. The carrier will add to the reading (about 2 to 4 in-lbs), but at least you have a way to verify that the preload is still within reason. Otherwise its just a guess.

    Dude, you have no idea how much we appreciate you. You're absolutely awesome. I hope that puts a 😊 on your face.

    Or you might not answer my question, but I have a 99 Ford F250 my gears are 10.25 4.10 so the bearing behind the yolk it keeps seizing to the pinion gear and impossible to take it off with a screwdriver pic I just don’t know why it keeps having a problem seizing to the pinion it has lubrication it has grease. It has everything that it needs but my question is do you have any idea why it would do that and then the other question is the little circle washer thing that goes before the bearing is that optional

    What was the point of counting the threads and marking the nut position if you didnt reference it when putting it back together?

  • @24theMoney

    "Feel" the backlash.

    The one thing I really like a lot was your technique on CLEAN. I was a line mechanic for a long time and I've seen some other mechanics not do a clean job as you did and there were come backs. You have a good work ethic and I want to thank you for that.

    Will a 8”inch jaw puller work?

    i always use a metal scribe to mark my pinion nut and flanges because of what you just did, always found myself cleaning my paint marks off! Great video!

    Just used your video as a guide to replace the pinion seal on a Dana 80 diff on our RV. Not done anything like this before but your video is very clear and informative and made it an easy job 👍

    First time viewer seeking to learn more about what I pay for in various repairs. Your detailed descriptions & excellent camera work make for excellent viewing & learning. Added to that, like a good chef who keeps chopping blocks clean, your careful consideration for clean parts as your replace things is a helpful lesson. Great, informative job. Many thanks!

    Excellent video! Helped me change my pinion seal yesterday. I watched several other more abbreviated videos videos which made it look a lot easier than it was. This one was pretty accurate. Of course every truck is going to be a little different, but the basics were the same. Thank you for posting!
