Sandcraft Cross Pin Retainer – Can-Am X3 Smart Lok Differential
Don’t let a weak OEM component destroy your front diff. The Sandcraft Cross Pin Retainer for Can-Am X3 Smart Lok differentials is the proven solution to the most common and catastrophic failure point in the Smart Lok system.
The OEM retainer is made from thin, cheap steel and held by only two bent tabs—this design fails under extreme stress, often resulting in total Smart Lok differential failure. Sandcraft solves this issue with a carbon steel cross pin retainer that’s 2X thicker than stock and uses four CAD-designed locking tabs for maximum strength.
