I have a 1970 Chevy c-10 and the pinion seal is leaking . going over the procedure of doing this and seams pretty simple , but not sure on the torque on the pinion nut? Can't seem to find it in my book?

Good and tight, not to exceed 225 ft lbs, more than this and you will change the preload on the pinion bearings by collsping the crush sleeve.
