Specter recommends that you not attempt any work on the differential without the aid of the Factory Chassis & Body Repair Manual (see page 221). Check #13 Shaft, #18 Gears, #19 Washers for scoring. When reinstalling flange #31 use grease so you don't scar or rip the rubber lip of #29 pinion seal. If #29 Pinion seal is leaking there is a possibility the #31 Flange has a slight groove where the seal rides or that #26 Shims have spun and have become thinner. This also causes play in the #31 flange. If you were just to tighten the nut, improper bearing pre-load #20 to #27 will occur and cause bearing failure. Check #27 Bearing for scoring on race & rollers. Also check #26 shims for spinning. Replace parts as needed. Always replace #29 Pinion Seal on replacement of any parts. Torque spec on #33 nut is 160 ft/lbs.
