2007 Buick Rainier Ring And Pinion

You should install the Axle Shaft into the rear axle housing, the new pinion shaft locking bolt, the rear axle housing cover and the gasket, the brake caliper, the rear wheel speed sensor, and the tire and wheel assembly.

You should wipe all grease away from the face of the CV Joint, spread the snap ring ears apart using J 8059 (or equivalent), place a brass drift against the cage, tap gently on the brass drift to tilt the cage, remove the first ball when the cage tilts and all of the balls, pivot the cage and the inner race 90 degrees to the centerline of the outer race, remove the inner race from the cage by rotating the inner race upward and degrease all of the CV joint parts.

You should remove the engine protection shield, the fill plug, the drain plug, and the washer, and drain the fluid from the Differential carrier assembly.
