Hi)
I have a Mazda B3000 1994, with Dana 35 axles. When I serviced the rear axle (replaced the axle oil seals), I found that the cross pin was some play in the carrier. This is all stock, mileage 120,000 miles

You see how he plays in the video. Then I turn the cross to 180 degrees, and the "playing" practically disappears. So, the question is - can I assemble the differential with turned (rotated) cross pin, like a photo below?
