torquing a pinion nut

[old cool]

I'll bet many of you knew I wouldn't get to first base with that nut - lol. I moved the truck forward and backward with emergency brake on and in gear; I even had a large pipe wrench (poorly set up) to hold the flange; got no where. I forgot the po loved super glue and jb weld (I'll spare the details). So, I'm sure there was a good supply of red locktite on that nut.
Perhaps one of you guys could have done it from under the truck - but I could not. And I didn't want to pull a groin trying.
I did get lube in a couple of u-joint end caps; but didn't disassemble to get the other two. I wasn't sure of myself as I haven't done ujts before. I did clear the zerk but couldn't get any grease through it with my trusty ole grease gun.
I'm reassembled and back to square one. I did grab drive shaft to check for movement and I got a little rotation slop (bout 1/4 inch) and some clunky sound. I checked it out while it was still in gear, and with brake on, so I'm sure I didn't do that right either. Oh, and I didn't get any up and down movement. That's all I know today folks. I'm feel a little bad that you all spent so much time on this thread. A hearty thanks!
