My thing is it's not crushing the crush sleeve when we put it in plus the pinion acts like it really dosent wanna move too much

You have to really lean on the wrench to actually crush the crush sleeve, you can reach around and grab the pinion with a rag (because it will tear your hand to shreds) and lube up the impact wrench and go for it, just remember to stop once in awhile to measure the "resistance torque" on the pinion. When you measure it, it will "spike" when the pinion starts to move then will settle down as it turns, THAT is what you are trying to measure with the torque wrench.

So we got the pinion in and just snugged the yoke nut and the pinion is beginning to become really difficult to turn. Last time we took it to the tq spec it would just lock up. I got the same bearings as what came out of the car just purchased new ones as well. But the pinion is prematurely locking up. .020 shim is now on the pinion as well.
