The pinion seal on this wagon is leaking pretty bad so I decided to replace it tomorrow. Question is? Do i need any special tools to do the job? Do I need a puller of some kind to remove the old seal or can I just drive it out with a flat blade screwdriver? Also,after I put in the new seal,does the big nut that holds the yoke assembly have to be torque to a specific lbs or inches of torque>
Just want to be sure I have everything I need cause I don't want to be crawling in and out from under the car every 5 or 10 minutes. Thanks for your help.
