[QUOTE="SILVER_SVT_GT, post: 14348346, member: 164819"] Absolutely fabulous bro. Thank you. Have read that you NEVER reuse the 36mm CV axle nuts and pinion nut. New pinion nut came with bearing kit. Having troubles finding axle nuts. Your generic parts store is a no go. AutoZone shows the picture of the nut, but they can't order it. NAPA can't get original either, but they have a generic spindle/axle nut for a 4x4. Its 36mm with same thread pitch and size. However, its a crimp style nut. Photo below. [ATTACH=full]595217[/ATTACH] Can I use this nut? Like 10 bucks each. Bought two of them. Thoughts? On a side note. Took diff carrier to the garage where I bought my last car. Couple mechanics having a smoke outside on break. One guy wearing a Ford hat. Perfect timing. SCORE!!! Didn't charge me anything. Threw the guy 20 bucks for helping and cause I liked his hat...lol Outer races are off. Gonna try the "freeze the carrier, heat the bearing" method for installing. Could take to work and press them on in 10 seconds. Just dying to try it. Picked up a 5 dollar pinion bearing for setting pinion depth. Will ream it out tonight at work. Getting closer...:pepper: Thanks again guys. [/QUOTE]
