I was looking on here awhile ago and some one had a link for how to change out your rear oil pinion seal. I have been searching around for it and I can't find it. If any knows which thread it is or has the link I would appericate it. Thanks guys
 
TNTriumph, the hardest part is getting the pinion nut off after you down the drive shaft. Place two bolts back in the rear hub and put a crow bar braced against the frame, using the curved end of the bar will let you get at the nut with a socket. Be sure to use some good jack stands or better yet have it on a lift. The seal comes out with a seal puller or screw driver. You may have to drive the sides of the seal in, but not many take such effort. Wayne
 
some one on here had a write up of how they did it I think he did it to a tr4 but its the same process. I have also heard that you can leave the wheels on and get someone to hold the wheel whileyou turn on the nut. Alsom I hear that you can drill in to the seal and put screws into it and then use a slide hammer to pull it out.
