Unless using green bearings, yes, is a must. With axles in they can't go anywhere, but the thrust buttons ( or thust block when open diff ) makes both axles keep conected keeping the axle assembly axial play with stock bearimgs being adjusted in just passenger side



I understand the thrust buttons are needed.
My question was:

Is the “roll pin” really needed, If the axles are in, where can the “thrust buttons” go?


interesting question since I have allways found it gets broken in halfs ( each half inside each button ) making work freely instead like one piece one against the other. Maybe yes maybe not... maybe is just for installation purpouse.

I have allways found the thrust buttons should be made in another way and fit tighter into the gears cross somehow. They get WAY LOT OF ROOM around once installed what mostly sure makes to break the roll pin easier. Will never understand that. Maybe thrust buttons should be made somehow being a male and female piece. Just thinking out loud
