Anyone have a P/N for 8.6 10 bolt pinion crush sleeve?
Overtightened mine tonight
I need to get a new one, anyone have a GM PN? I checked with my local Napa today and they don't have one. Next stop is the dealer as long as they aren't crazy overpriced.

In a pinch I've re-adjusted the crush sleeve over an old pinion gear. Lots of people simply reuse the old crush sleeve after adjusting it.
So long as you get the 15-20 inch/pounds for used bearings or 25 lnch/pounds for new bearings yo are golden.

Re-using a crush sleeve does not give this same preload.

That nut isn't going anywhere, I'm worried more about the bearing preload than preload on the nut.
Ive straightened them out, there is a force pushing back. But I do understand your point of the force not being the same between a new crush sleeve a reused crush sleeve that has already been crushed, then re-adjusted with the straightening, then re-crushed. The metal has been work hardened/fatigued for sure.
What is your opinion on using a solid spacer? I'm not sure I understand how that would work?
