Re: 55 ford Ranch Wagon Pinion Seal
I had a pro do mine. He scribed a mark across the pinion nut and housing before disassembly and then tightened the nut just a hair past the mark on the housing to reestablish the pre-load. Torque is pretty high on these, up to 200 to 220 foot pounds depending on what axle you have.
