Okay, my gears are a little shallow so I'm going to see if I can find some 4.10's for dirt cheap at a junk yard. I've pulled carriers out of 30's and 35's before, so that's not a problem, but I have some questions for the pinion and installing the used gears in my axles...
What size is the pinion nut? I want to have the right socket. Any tips on remving the nut (I've never removed a pinion, only carriers to count pinion teeth). I will not have access to air or power tools.
What do I need to do to install the gears? I have an FSM and admit to not looking at it yet, I know thsi has been beaten to death over and over, just curious if I should do anything differently as I'll be getting used gears. What tools will I need, and what can I get by without using?
I'm looking to have these gears in so I can drive to Moab much easier than my current 3.55 on 31's.
Thanks,
Sequoia
