For a great General Motors slide show, see this link on Deve's page. The slide show on link above (from 1952) shows the oil retainer in a different position than mine (see slide 35 and 36). I panicked when I put mine together because I thought the oil retainer was in the wrong spot! Luckily I had taken this photo Pinion prior to dissassembly that showed the proper orientation (it is the same as Sweet's Tech tip photos). I hope this helps. The real beauty of the Okie sleeve is that the new bushings ride on a previously unused section of the driveshaft where as replacing the old bushings uses the potentially worn section the original bushings rode on and worn. When installing the Okie bushing (it's driven in once the drive shaft is installed) make sure you clean up the driveshaft teeth with a file to eliminate and sharp edges that will damage the Okie seal when you install it.
