Rear Pinion Seal replacement time...Questions 200 1989

I replaced my slush Omatic transmission, drive shaft and rear end a little over a year ago with an M47, drive shaft and rear end from a donor car, believe it was an 90 or 91.

So almost immediately I noticed that they pinion seal was seeping and now I'm finally getting around to fixing it. So a couple of questions.

1. Must I drain the differential first before working on it?
2. How do I figure out the torque spec of the nut when I'm putting it back on? The green manual Section 4, Group 46 states that there are 3 possibilities:
a. nut 88626 (3/4" UNF): 175 220 ft.lbs.
b. nut 946831 (3/4" UNF): 150-18f5t .lbs.
c. nut 947855 (M20x1.5): 150-18f5t .lbs

Anything else I'm gonna need to know before doing this?

Thanks in advance,

Matt
