Thanks guys. I appreciate the time you take to help me. It all makes sense and confirmed what "i was thinking".
Bill, I simply ask for a pinion sleeve and those two short ones are what showed up. For a few pennies over $3 I figure I'd keep them and maybe help someone else sometimes.

In my spare time I deliver driveshafts for a local guy who runs Carolina DriveLine. I deliver to several 4x4 shops and could have probably got the info there....but I keep business as business most of the time. There is one shop that is nice and friendly and I'm sure Buddy will give me a handful of shims and the correct crush sleeve, and probably some advice as well!!! In fact, Tom mentioned the other day that he may have some at the driveline shop.
Its great knowing we can count on the Stovebolt community when we need it. Thanks again.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
