  I can scan drawings of the pinion puller, and the method of removal. That job is a complicated one also requiring a special puller to remove the bearing cups after the pinion is out of the banjo.

  I don't have a picture but a friend of mine has a good quality 2 jaw puller that he shortened the forcing screw on so that it will fit inside the banjo and push on the end of the pinion, the jaws go on the flange where the torque tube bolts. We put a 1/8th inch thick aluminum flat piece on each side to protect the flange from the jaws of the puller. This pushes the pinion, bearings and double race out the front of the banjo in one unit, no need to fight the race later. The forcing screw of the puller is small enough to go through the hole in the small bearing on the end of the pinion and that one taps out after the whole works is out of the way.
