To crush or eliminate?

[skipnrocks]

I'm building a custom ford 9 for the kids buggy running 40 in stickies. I have a crush sleeve for the 9 but always swap those on my 14 bolts for the eliminator. On those I do it because I don't have an impact able to crush them. So should I use the sleeve I have or buy an eliminator kit?

Re:

Go solid spacer. I believe some companies have even started eliminating crush sleeves from their install kits.

Solid spacer and shims for sure. It will never crush under load. Side benefit is being able to tighten or re-torque the pinion nut at any time, without fear of crushing the sleeve too much.

x2 the Solid Spacer.

It takes l little more time to set them up, but it is worth the peace of mind...one less piece in the puzzle.
