Front locker install
So i've been watching videos and doing research on how to install my no-slip in my dana 30. I've seen and read about removing the carrier and actually removing the ring gear from the carrier, putting the locker in, and just throw everything back in. With the line of work i'm in (cnc machining), i just can't see doing this without things not going back EXACTLY where they were. I'm not too experienced in the differential field so help would be appreciated.

It wasnt hard at all to install it inside the carrier. The pin was easy once I found a perfect long rod to tap it put. The the shaft pin came out along with spiders then input locker in and new shaft and pin. Done in about 2 hours.
