Pulled the front and rear differential covers to take a peek at gear condition since the Jeep is approaching 200k miles. No surprise on the front but the rear spiders are damaged.
Not a big deal and figured I'd just swap them out since side gears look fine. Buuuutttt, I'm used to seeing a bolt holding in the cross pin and this has a roll pin. Is there a trick to removing the roll pin? Or will it drive all the away thru the ring? Roll pin hole appears to go thru but I can't tell. Was hoping to swap these in the housing if possible.
