I am in the same boat. I would love to have a set, but it is going to be a month or so. I would love to find out the price they will be listed at after the pre-order. Looks like more quality EVO stuff!

These go inside of the axle housing? Can a run of the mill 4X4 shop do the work and not be confused on it? I dont have a welder and would love to get these done at a low intro price

So you don't need to weld the actual outer edge of the tube to the outer edge of the factory tube (where the shaft comes out)? The plug welds will hold the sleeve for good?

I really need to sleeve my front... I mean I really needED to sleeve my front axle. What is your opinion of both of my front axle tubes are already slightly bent. It is very slight, and has been the same now for about 9 months. I can only imagine if they are really bent there will be no way to press these in, so I can imagine you will answer will be that it depends on the severity of the bends... My camber is 1.2* driver, and 1.1* psgr. I honestly have no idea what the stock/not bent camber is to tell how much these have bent. Anyway, whatcha think?

Are the plug welds the only thing needed or does the rim of the tube have to be welded allthe way around the outside edge of the axle housing as well?
