F fr96ss New Member Jul 17, 2003 326 1 0 Long Island, NY Dec 29, 2004 #1 Dec 29, 2004 #1 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.

Install same thickness solid bushing with new locking nut. Thats my story on it ! Solid is the only way to go............
