Hello Driveline Experts,

Installing an Oakie Bushing in my 46 1/2 ton. Is there any reason to replace the front dowel pin if the Oakie Bushing drives in securely?

Regards,

Larry

All the imformation I have read seems to point to if it is in there tight no need for dowel pin .On the other hand if the hole is in the tube it wouldn’t hurt to put it back in.
