If you have stock axles, a stock housing and snap-ring style green bearings you do not have to remove the thrust buttons.




Thanks for that Doc , is this also the case with the thrust block on a cone type and if so is this something that only pertains to the snap ring greens ?

Frank , if you have buttons like the one in the link above it's not a cone type , also you can not rotate the thrust block in a cone type it's fixed ,it can only move a little and you wouldn't be able to grab the block with pliers as is almost the same size as the hole the axle splines into .
