Anyone sleeved their axles before?
I ordered some c gussets and axle sleeves for my front D44 last night, and the sleeve part looks sort of tricky.
looks like you are supposed to drill some holes through the casing and plug weld it. plus it says you should weld the cast iron center section to the stock axle tubes, but recommends tig for that part with stainless 312 rod...
Anyone know of any good write ups on it? or have experience with it?
The C gussets seam pretty straight forward, it's just he axle sleeves that seem like something I could mess up, haha..
