What happens here

With the vehicle lifted safely on jack stands, the driver prepares to replace the pinion yoke. He removes the old, broken pinion yoke (not explicitly shown but implied before fluid drain) and immediately positions a drain pan to catch the differential fluid. After the old pinion yoke is completely removed and fluid is drained, he quickly installs the new AAM pinion yoke onto the differential to minimize further fluid loss. He then refills the differential with fresh fluid.

Goal: Securely install the new pinion yoke and ensure the differential is properly lubricated.

Tools and materials

  • Drain Pan — Collecting differential fluid, Jack Stands Unknown
  • Differential Fluid — Lubricating the differential gears and bearings
