Sorry, 90 Silverado, 2wd, auto transmission.
If she has a lot of mileage on her, the tail shaft bushing may need to be replaced. the seal just prys out like any other seal, and install with a soft faced hammer taping around the out side edge till flush. Lubricate the seal and the yoke before assembly. If there is a groove worn in the yoke replace it. If it has a two piece drive shaft make sure the center support bearing is in good condition. If the u-joints are original, now would be a good time to replace them while the shaft is out of the vehicle.
