Hello all,
I did a search on this and found some info on doing this job. I was hoping to do this my self since my dealership and local repair shops want over $200.00 to replace it. My Dana 30 is leaking from the pinion seal and its on my 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport.
My question is about the pinion nut. I found a site that shows the process, but I'm afraid to take that nut off without causing any problems. When I put it back on how tight do I make it. I don't want to crush the sleeve and make things worse. Does anyone have any insight in replacing this?
This is the site I found. Step 12 just says tighten it. Is this ok?
