im not sure about the pinion yoke. Could a worn pinion yoke cause my rear end to leak even with a new pinion seal? and what do you mean by pinion seal spring?

I had that issue and it was because the seal I had first purchased was a cheapy seal open back side where you could see a spring that would provide tension on the rubber boot to create a seal. It did not work out so well, so I got a better one and it fixed it.
