pinion install help
88 cherokee with dana 30. Trying to reinstall the pinion after replacing all the bearings and such and when I tighten the pinion nut the pinion gets tight and don't spin freely. I followed the books instruction to tighten the nut to 210ft/lbs and I don't even get close before it won't spin. I've pulled it back apart several times trying to find stuff missing or out of place and am out of ideas.
