Does anyone have any experience with the roll pin installation with the Renigade Hybrid axle kit? I have new roll pins from Pelican and they just don’t want to go into the stub axle or spacer as easy as on Ian Karr’s video. I could put it in a press, but that won’t work with the trans axle. I could try to press them on with the 6 bolts through the spacer, but I’m not sure if there is enough torque before they’ll strip. Any ideas would be appreciated before I screw something up….thanks blob:null/59e017c3-9e8c-41d4-8946-5651ae8e75d2/“
