I’m having an issue with pinion flange now
its tightened but it jiggles side to side with play could it be the bearing ? Another issue I was tightening and the gears got messed up inside differential

Gotta know what your doing with rear ends. Not something a beginner should tackle for their first foray into auto mechanics. Lol

Getting it wrong can be expensive......... If you know someone that has done it before, draft them. If you can't get anyone, READ A LOT before you turn a wrench. Differentials are REALLY picky, and neglecting one step will trash the whole thing in pretty short order.
