Rather than use washers that could bind up I had a friend who is a machinist make up some longer ones that worked great. They are $10 If anyone else is interested let me know and I will get them made for you. I sincerely hope this doesn't start another month long argument about "Sleeves with washers vs. sleeves without washers" Randy Snarr 235/320 69% 801 865 3600
