What tools are required to replace the drive pinion bearings on a 10.5-inch axle on GMC Sierra 1500?

A 10.5-inch axle drive Pinion Bearing replacement requires use of j 22761 (Differential Side Bearing Installer) alongside j 8614-01 (Flange and Pulley Holding Tool) and j 37624 (Pinion Bearing Installer) and j 24433 (Pinion Cone and Side Bearing Installer) and j 22912-b (Split Plate Bearing Puller) and j 44414 (Rear Axle Pinion Oil Seal Installer) and j 8608 (Rear Pinion Bearing Installer) and j 8092 (Universal Driver Handle - 3/4 in - 10). Start with lifting the vehicle and proceeding to remove the Differential assembly. Remove the pinion gear bearing retainer before proceeding to remove the pinion yoke along with its oil seal before completing the process by taking out the outer Pinion Bearing, pinion, and collapsible spacer. The j 22912-b and hydraulic press will extract the inner Pinion Bearing from the pinion by using a brass drift inside the slots to maintain equal bearing cup removal. Rephrase this process using a hammer alongside brass drifts for the removal of both the outer and inner Pinion Bearing cups until the pinion gear pilot bearing frees. After folloing the j 22761 to place the pinion gear pilot bearing, the installer should utilize j 37624 and j 8092 for putting the inner Pinion Bearing cup before finishing with j 8608 and j 8092 to set the outer Pinion Bearing cup. Install the inner Pinion Bearing with the j 24433 tool while placing a new breakable spacer in position. After lubricating the pinion bearings apply the retainer to the outer Pinion Bearing. The j 44414 is used to install the new pinion oil seal after which the pinion must be installed into the bearing retainer with sealant applied to the pinion yoke splines before final installation. Use the j 8614-01 to tighten the pinion nut until the end play reaches its minimum point while holding it. For the Pinion Bearing we should install either the original shim or a 0.41 mm replacement shim instead of j 8614-01. Put the pinion gear bearing retainer to the axle housing then bolt it down to 88 n.m (65 lb ft) torque setting. Check the pinion rotation torque against its indicated specifications. The pinion nut should be tightened to its correct torque measurement before rotating the pinion multiple times for proper bearing seating. You must reinstall the Differential assembly then adjust the Differential side bearing preload before determining the drive pinion selective shim thickness and adjusting the backlash and filling the axle with lubricant and finally lowering the vehicle.
