Anyone with Dana 30 experience?
The pinion in my LP Dana 30 is loose and I’m guessing the crush sleeve is in need of replacement. I only need to bandage the issue through summer while I build up my HP Dana 30, so I’d like to just pop the outer bearing, slip in a new sleeve, and slap it back together.
Anyone have experience swapping the crush sleeve in such a fashion?

It should be easier than that even. Get yourself a new lock nut and replace it and tighten so it takes about 8 newton meters to turn the pinion. Then you will be done.

I'm not positive, but everything I've read says the low pinion 30s have crush sleeves and all others use shims.
