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.

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