Can a crush sleeve be reused?
Can a crush sleeve be reused?
You can reuse a crush sleeve if you can obtain the desired bearing preload ( inch pounds of drag ) and still maintain a decent torque on the pinion nut.
Where does the torque come from in a crush sleeve?
Ok well there is NO torque for the pinion nut per say… Lets start with the crush sleeve. The crush sleeve is between the inner and outer pinion bearings. The sleeves job is to keep the pressure outward against the two bearings.
What is the job of a crush sleeve?
The sleeves job is to keep the pressure outward against the two bearings. The crush sleeve as in its name is to be crushed upon final differential assembly and keeps the bearings pressure consistent in the bearing cups.
What happens if you torque the yoke nut on a Chevy?
74 Chevy 1/2 ton 4×4. Crate 350.Edelbrock intake,cam and carb. You DON’T torque the yoke nut. The pinion has a crush sleeve in it that – if you over-torque it, will crush excessively and accelerate the gear wear (and it will whine a lot and possibly self destruct if bad enough).

How much weight does it take to crush a crush sleeve?
NOW the Nut at the time of assembly will take 100-180 FT Lbs. (depending on the size of the sleeve ) to crush a crush sleeve to the point at which the bearings are seated into the bearing cups/races.
How does a crush sleeve on bearings work?
The crush sleeve is between the inner and outer pinion bearings. The sleeves job is to keep the pressure outward against the two bearings. The crush sleeve as in its name is to be crushed upon final differential assembly and keeps the bearings pressure consistent in the bearing cups.
