Re: Replaced pinion seal but did I do it right?

Once the ring gear and case are removed does the pinion fall out?

No, you have to drive it out.

When reinstalling you have to use the yoke and nut to drive the front bearing back on the gear. It doesn't just slip on.

No disrespect meant. I was a transmission man at GM dealers for 15 years before I retired to teach auto repair.
