OK, I found my Redi-Sleeve, and am re-installing the Pinion and Yoke. However with the new seal and the Redi-Sleve there is a LOT of rotational resistance in the yoke. I did apply some geese to the new seal, and some lubricant to the yoke, but the resistance is more than I remember on any other differentials I've worked on. The Redi-Sleve even went on pretty easy, so I know the yoke isn't over sized. I know it's also not the bearings as they were all inspected and checked, but the yoke was a very tight fit into the seal, hard to insert and turn even with out the pinion.
Should I be concerned?
