Just sucks that you got it all put back in, then found a problem & had to break it down again. Don't you hate that?

People have been using a solid spacer in place of a crush sleeve in race cars for years. It holds up better under severe conditions where you’re in and out of the throttle a lot. Of course it’s a little harder for the typical person to set-up not everyone being a machinist, but once it is, it’s there.

Got some sitting in a box ready to go. Wanna buy some 4.56s?

Oh and whats the thread pitch on the flanges? They are smaller than the stock bolts.

I taped them Metric just to mess with you.... LOL Actualy there the same metric as the factory 99-up bolts. Let me go look.

Confirmed Its an M12x1.75

I am sure you threw out your originals. I may have another set here
