Hi all,
I screwed up today! I had to change my front pinion seal on my 87 cherokee and noticed that I had a loose in my pinion so i wanted to change my bearing. I was running out of time and had to move the truck cause i couldnt close the garage, i went back 10 feet and forward 8 feet and crack it did!!
I forgot to put the pinion nut back on and it locked up, i was going really slow like crawling slow and didnt force it. I noticed the ring gear has 2 tiny pieces chipped off on the inner side of the ring gear, 1/8 X1/8 X 1/16 thick now can i buff these suckers out and be successful just to prevent wear. It dont look too bad so give me some feed back..thanks
