quick end of the day project fixing a pinion seal leak on my 1989 Toyota pickup

I really appreciate you showing us even the little things.
Some of us - like me - know squat about this stuff...and I want to learn as much as I realistically can.
And you are helping me with that.

Peace.

The torque spec you found is just the start of the preload adjustment procedure. You start at 89 ft-lbs and then adjust in 10 ft-lb increments until the rolling drag is in spec. I looked and Toyota doesn't give a procedure for reusing the crush sleeve. But, on every other manufacturer I've seen you are supposed to measure the rolling drag of the whole differential before you take it apart, then when you reassemble it you adjust until it's about 5 in-lbs greater. It's really tricky to do. I always take the wheels off and back off the calipers if it has disk brakes. Even then it's a PITA to get a consistent measurement of the rolling drag. But, I doubt it makes any difference!

The fact that you balanced that drive shaft so damn well amazes me. Because it's a specific job which requires it's own shop and specialist to do it. Very good 👍👍👍

I love my 09 Tacoma. Its just a little 4 cyl 2.7, nothing too fun, but shes got 200, 000 miles and purrs like a kitten. Love the videos, especially the big diesel repairs

Enjoyable to watch you do something on here. Why ?? Because you finish what you start. I have a bit of a problem with stopping and walking away before something is done. Keep it up. We enjoy your efforts immensely.

You just reminded me of something on my "to do" list I have to change out the gear oil in my 88 Ford F250 and both axles on my 04 Toyota RAV4. I guess I know what I'll be doing on Friday morning. Nice day to do it today where I'm at, but I'm on a ladder today painting my house. Took a break from it and your notification popped up so I immediately had to see it. Thanks for the great video. 👍

I really enjoy the content of all of your videos. Must admit I'm like most I expect as I prefer old red. But you're good at what you do so keep it going. All the best from the U K.

Ezra when you grabbed a finger of that gear oil I thought you were going to taste it. It looks real clean under there.

Just found your threads online. Found your youtube. Inspirational!! Exactly what I want to do with my 90 2wd 22r! And my rear pinion seal is leaking LOL. Looks awesome. Can't wait to lift mine a bit.

Yo that truck looks mean like that though with the white steelies and matte grey. Glad to see you posting again

I like the steel wheels on that truck. Nothing wrong with saving a truck by combining two together.

My S-10 is an 89 so I guess we're 89-in laws! Good job, Ezra! GBWYall!
