Re: Another newb question, u-joint wear
It can be done out of the truck. The pinion depth shims are between the removable pinion retainer and the main axle housing. Just measure and replace with new of the same thickness.
Yukon makes a crush sleeve eliminator kit for the GM & AAM 14bolt so no need of a massive torque wrench. You can build a pinion holder with a drill press, chunk of 11ga steel plate, pipe, and welder. The only oddball tool really needed is a decent in/lb torque wrench.
