Axle sleeves

[Prime]

A there any other way to install axle sleeves other than knocking out the holes in the axle and welding them in? I'm having them put in my two door. Reason I ask is the guy called me and said my jeep was ready I stopped it off yesterday around 3pm suppose to have regeared to 5.13 sleeved and gusset the C's. When he called and said it was ready I said I figured you would be calling about the key lugs he said no I have plenty around my shop. So now I'm wondering if he really did put the sleeves in.

I've heard of two ways to put in sleeves.

-Weld in
-Pound in

I cant really comment on sleeves since I dont have them but from what I understand you can tell by looking into the axle tubes. That's if you don't have stock shafts with the plastic covering the tube.

What brand sleeve did you use? That will determine how it was installed.

 

[jeeeep]

depends on which sleeves they used - Nitro sleeves do not require welding.

Not sure what brand guess I'll be looking at the axles tomorrow.
