Re: My ford 8.8 build

For the axle tube sleeves all I did was take a few measurements inside the ford axle, and used the measurement in between my lowest and highest readings, which was 2.880". I used the same procedure on the outside of the camaro axle to arrive at my inside sleeve diameter which was 2.639. Every axle will be some what different though.
