Solid pinion spacer vs crush sleeve

[fr96ss]

I was wondering if anyone has used a solid pinion spacer verses a standard cruch sleeve when setting up new gears. I hear solid is the way to go. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

If you are going to run a solid spacer make sure whoever installs it knows what they are doing.

I use a crush sleave with a NON locking nut, set the depth.

Pull nut off and measure the crush sleave.

Install same thickness solid bushing with new locking nut.

Thats my story on it !

Solid is the only way to go............

you want to set the rotating torque of the pinion with the spacer,not the depth,which is set by the shim under the pinion
