Oh boy, you kinda screwed the pooch here. The best way to do this it
to mark the nut and oinion stub BEFORE you remove nut and retighten
to same spot. Lacking this, you need to tightened it to get proper
preload in term of in lbs of toruge required to rotate it which is
tuff to do properly with diff installed.
