Otherwise you could bore oversize and install a steel sleeve but this would be more trouble and risk than finding a replacement axle in my opinion. Sleeves in the axle are probably not universally recommended, but I’ve seen it done. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | On my 1 Ton I had the axle bored and hardened sleeves installed. iIt has been just fine for 10 years and 40K miles. It has a standard bore now. | | |
