Is Using Used Spiders in a D30 Taboo?

Hey there guys! I may have done some munching to my D30, and from the reading ive done, its usually the spider gears that decide to die. So question is, is it bad to use Used spider gears. I have a 98 and im pretty sure its the high pinion, if there is such a thing on that year. What donor axles could I pull them from? or is it worth it to just get new ones? Any help would be much appreciated. Its snowy season so the sooner i can get it fixed the better. 4 wheel drive still works but it bangs pretty dang good once one tire gets spinnin. Thanks for the help fellas.

You have the HP, but that does not matter. Used spider and side gears are fine to use, life of them will probably be shorter than new OEM.

You probably ate up the cross pin too, possibly the carrier or shaft :)
Post up in you local chapter, maybe someone has some spare turd parts
