To install spider gears in the rear differential of a 2006 Z71 with a G80 locker and 3.73 gears, first, remove the differential cover and drain the gear oil. Next, remove the ring gear and the differential case to access the spider gears. Replace the old spider gears with the new ones, ensuring proper alignment and lubrication, then reassemble the differential by reversing the disassembly steps. Finally, refill the differential with the appropriate gear oil and check for proper operation.

The differential (rearend) is what your back wheels and drive shaft are bolted to. If you have a 4 wheel drive there is one at the front as well. The differential has a series of gears ( spider gears ) inside. This allows for the difference of the speed between the left and right wheels when turning corners or going over bumps ect.
What is the funchion of a spider gear pin in a differential?
It keeps the spider gears spread apart , to mesh to the Differential output shaft gears ( 2) , one on each side of of the spider gear set , inside the Differential Housing . What I was trying to find was a Modification to a Traxxas Rustler / Nitro Sport Diff , that you took a longer pin and cut it just a small bit longer , which in turn , is suppose to force the spider gear teeth ( further ) into the Diff output shaft , gear teeth , for better tooth contact area , hence .... less gear tooth breakage .....maybe last longer also.
