Question Dana 30 cross shaft & push pin

I have been running a Aussie locker for little over a year with no problems. Im about to put in new inner seals and a SOLID diff cover on and was wondering if I should replace the cross shaft & push pin?


Thanks

I did a complete D30 rebuild and the one thing i skimped on was a new cross pin... It eventually went 6 months later... and destroyed my R&P and who knows what else.. every time u break down/rebuild a lunchbox or regular locker i recommend it

The cross pin split in half.. broke apart and shaved off my ring gear... I will never make that mistake again... the lunchbox locker had been rebuilt a time or two prior to my lower gear...

Please just buy a $20 new one and save yourself the trouble of rebuilding ur diff
