Rear bearings for an 8 3/4 rear end

While we are talking about the "new" green bearings, I have a concern. I am an old fart and have no problem adjusting axle end play. But my 8 3/4 has Sure-grip, which has the extra thrust pins in the center section. My concern is that axle end play becomes not adjustable with green bearings, so what happens to these pins which now have excessive play? Please enlighten me.

To answer the question of what to do when you install the Green bearings is for you to remove the thrust pin in the center of the differential. Then you don't have to worry about running out of end play.
