Nice thanks

Tac-Town 253 says:

The red threadlocker/permanent is not necessary, kinda overboard. Especially on calipers, blue would do just fine although you could do without any really. That's what the torque is for.

MB says:

Don’t see why need to replace seal if it’s not leaking, not broke don’t fix it

Anthony says:

Excellent!!!! My brother!!!

ChriS Spencer says:

Any way to get the part numbers of the yoke and seal?

David Nava says:

Thank you for all of your help!! ❤

DavesDonuts says:

That is a locking nut it would take more than 20 inch pounds to turn it in the first place

crye redd says:

dude, why did you cut at 4:30? its good to know how easier or tough some things come apart

Isrrael Caperon says:

Can a bad yoke and pinion cause humming noise In g80 diff

Brad says:

My preload was only 5in lbs. No play in yoke. Isn't that a little low? Differential made no noise or vibration. Just need to change the leaky seal

D-S-L L says:

The ugly design of that crashing plate, make people hard to control the tightness of the connection.

334cobra says:

Don't use a click style torque wrench!! -_-

Mike Sullivan says:

This would be better if the questions asked were answered………………

Michael Lawrence says:

I'm curious as well what's the size of the nut that hold the yoke on

shaun cunningham says:

What size is that center nut?

Robert Paul says:

Why do you have to take off calipers?

Josh Hancock says:

Why mark the yoke and drive shaft it you was not using the same one

Radtrad Tattdaddy says:

Willy Garcia says:

Brother I have a question I've gone into forums but have not found a satisfactory answer I have a 99 s10 the yoke has a damper 2 of the bolts broke I'm trying to find another yoke with damper but itd impossible I looked online nothing I notice that most s10s rear diff dont have the yoke damper. My question is this can I use a regular yoke instead of a yoke with damper for vibration why and why not I'm confused???

Shimaze says:

Would have been nice if there was NO background impact noise from someone else NOT in the video!!!
