I just replaced the rear pinion yoke one my 91 XJ with d35c rear. On a test drive, I got a grinding sound coming out of the rear end. Back in the garage I pull the rear diff cover, the pinion has ground against the carrier. This leads me to two questions.
Do all D35c have the same rear pinion yoke? (mine is a 91 the donor yoke was on an 85) a shorter yoke wouldn't pull the pinion as far forward as the nut was tightened.
Or did I miss a step in installing the yoke that could have let the pinion catch on the ring gear and have the nut reach torque before the pinion was pulled all the way forward? And if you think this is the case, what are the steps to replacing the read pinion yoke?
Thanks to all
