There's no "crush sleeve"... You may be referring to the dust guard that sits between the yoke and the seal?

 

This isn't the exact part but its the same thing for another make and model... Is this what you mean?

 

You know what @Vigo, I have to stand corrected... There is a collapsible spacer that goes between the bearings... Here is a photo of the rear end on our trucks... Its item "41231" in the image

 

Vigo is secretly at home going yeaaaaaa bitch in yo face! No collapsible spacer you said ha suck it bitch lol

 

"No crush sleeve" is what I said never have... But upon closer inspection of my higher reading materials, found that there is a one-time-use bearing spacer that is to be discarded and replaced when major repairs to the pumpkin are made... But for just the seal not a big deal as long as the nut is torqued properly

 

You actually set up the gear mesh first, then install the spacer... Since he won't have the pumpkin apart aside from the nut and flange, no need to mess with all that

 

Yeah, that thing-a-ma-jig that I didn't know the name for. To do it "properly" pulling the axles and third and dropping the driveshaft and removing the pinion to change the collapsible spacer didn't sound so Ez peazy. I just thought that you didn't mention marking the pinion nut before backing it off, it should be mentioned so that he can get it as close as possible to the torque when the gears were set up. If had solid spacer and shims then wouldn't matter, right?

 

Nah, we're all here to try help out each other and that's exactly what Jason was trying to do.

 

Yup good on both of you.

@Chanc'um

 

Got this today. Now need to find some free time to wire some mods to it.

 

Got my locker installed with the help of Rick's flip kit, and wrapped the roof. Not anywhere as easy as the tailgate. Probably should have asked for some help with it lol. Two hands were not enough hands :/

 

Thanks Dennis for the upgrade.

 

Looks awesome! Thinking of doing hood, roof, and tailgate.

 

Do it! But start with the tailgate, way easier
