Also i should have told ya that you do not have to drop the ft.end to replace the crush spacer . You remove the yoke and the seal , then you remove the ft. bearing and the crush spacer will be behind the ft. bearing . You remove the crush spacer and replace it then put the ft. bearing back in then the seal then the yoke then the nut . Then it will take X amount of ft. lbs. of torque to get the spacer to start to crush . When it does you put a inch lbs. torque wrench on the nut and you see what you have . This is to be done with the axles out to get the correct reading and you tighten up the pinion nut till you reach the setting . Then it is sorta fixed till the next time. So you tighten and check . More then likely you will need two torque wrenches one inch pound and one foot pound and the foot pound will likely be one that will have to go over 300-400 ft. lbs. So here it may be cheaper to let the dealer install that seal.
