Rear Wheel Roller Bearing Lube

[Azisbest]

this is not rear needle roller bearing, this is about shaft connecting differential/bevel box and the engine

I guess it’s just over my abilities, nothing new there.

actually that needle bearing lubing is pretty easy but the splines/shafl/differential is intermediate -expert level task.

Gonna really show my ignorance here. The illustration tells us to loosen then remove the rear wheel spindle bolt but does not point it out. Can you tell me where it is?

Here is the exact instructions from OEM *factory Manual*

to take this part #1 (oil seal) out its recommended to use an *oil seal puller tool*
--------------------------------------------------------

In this photo part #2 and part#3 are visible, oil seal is not because its already out

Newbie here to Rockets, what size torx does that nut take...so I have it on hand? Also as I don't have a manual could you tell me the torque setting for that nut and the four nuts to lube the drive shaft. I'm also looking for a reasonably priced shop manual if someone could steer me in that direction. 2008 R3. Thank you in advance.
