ok guys,, after 4 hrs of literally beatin the **** out of the pinion nut/pinion no luck. got a big honkin 2 jaw puller, was pushin the damn wrench with my feet as my brother held the puller. finally gave way after about 30 minutes . puller popped,, went flying,gashed my shin, but woohoo the damn pinion is out. the new bearing froze,heated up and welded itself to the back of the yok and the pinion shaft. im havin no luck with this darn rearend. i have my buddies uncle(rearend man) comin to check everything over and hopefully a pizza and case of beer he will install it and set my torque arm(probably my problem from the get go). thanks for the help guys
