rear pinion nut removal and installation
This a note for those doing the rear pinion nut removal and installation.....
I finally got my holding nut off my 300D Euro.
I used a pinion shaft nut remover socket [special order] to remove it.
Don't buy the cheap one from "JTC tools" #1615 this broke the first go down.
I used a three foot bar on my socket it was sooooo, tight.
You will need to have somebody hold the socket in place while this accomplished.
I then torqued up to 180NM and or where I had marked before removal to get the correct loading.
