I did this job two weeks ago on the rear end. I just un staked the nut and put an impact on it had it off in less than 1 minute. I just counted the number of exposed threads and marked where the stacked part of the nut should be. Then I put my torque wrench to 90ft/lbs and torqued it back up once the new seal was in. Everything lined up and I called it good. No problems and I have put about 2000 miles on the truck.
However, the OP is correct and I commend him on wanting to get it done just right.
My rig sees nearly 80% mud, but that's for less than 1000 miles a year (trail only truck).
Well done, Soccerdude
