Pinion Seal
Replacing the rear pinion seal in an 85 cherokee pioneer Dana 35. Problem
is I cannot get the shaft nut off the yoke. My question is, what is the
torque spec on this thing? Been try to spray it down with PB blaster and
been hanging off my breaker bar trying to loosen it to no avail. Any advice
would be appreciated.

Re: Pinion Seal
Eric,
The minimum torque is 170 ft-lb. It may have been torqued on to the
crush sleeve anywhere up to 500 ft-lb to attain the proper pinion
preload (turning resistance on the pinion bearings). Probably ended up
in the 200-250 ft-lb range.
Try a longer breaker bar or extend it with a few feet of pipe. If the
bar won't do it, you'll need an impact wrench.
Some relevant notes from Dana on putting it back together:
http://xjeep.dyndns.org/danaspicer.pdf
"Torque pinion nut until all end-play is removed and the minimum wrench
torque is achieved. Check torque to rotate of pinion with inch-lb (N.m)
torque wrench for proper rotating torque. See Specification for proper
pinion bearing preload. Continue to tighten in small increments until
the proper rotating torque is achieved. Measure the preload torque
frequently to avoid overtightening of the pinion nut. CAUTION: IF
PRELOAD TORQUE IS EXCEEDED, A NEW COLLAPSIBLE SPACER MUST BE INSTALLED
AND THE TORQUE SEQUENCE REPEATED."
"NOTE: NEW PINION SEAL WILL ADD 3 LB-IN (.34) TO THE TOTAL TORQUE TO ROTATE"
If you are not replacing the bearings with your new seal, your target
pinion preload is 18 inch-lb. Pinion preload is measured with the
carrier removed. If you don't want to remove the carrier, pull the axles
and measure the total pinion + carrier preload before you take the nut
off. Then add 3 inch-lb for your target carrier + pinion preload with
the new seal.

Re: Pinion Seal
Hi Eric,
This is the combination I use:
http://www.----------.com/pipewrench.jpg A two foot pipe wrench, and a
forged "L" without the little ball that's designed to hold the socket,
that weakens it. It's only about a foot long, so I use the bottle jack
handle to feather the floor jack handle cheaters. Use your breaker bar
if you want a nice shinny new one.

This is the combination I use:
http://www.----------.com/pipewrench.jpg A two foot pipe wrench, and a
forged "L" without the little ball that's designed to hold the socket,
that weakens it. It's only about a foot long, so I use the bottle jack
handle to feather the floor jack handle cheaters. Use your breaker bar
if you want a nice shinny new one.
