BINGO

Thanks Andy, that's where I read about spedi sleeves.  It wasn't a
website after all (told you my brain was feeble).  It IS in the Six Tech
by Len Renkenberger.  Just went and found my Six Tech and looked it up
(page E-6 for those of you with a Six Tech).  He talks about using the
spedi sleeves on front spindles, axle shafts, and engine timing gear
covers (which is my potential use for the spedi sleeve and why I was
looking for the info.).  Some other areas where they can be used are the
upper inner fulcrum, lower inner control arm hole and outer lower
control arm hole.

I'm glad I didn't have to look through all my bookmarks and all my
manuals...drives me nuts when I know something I'm looking for is there
but I can't find it.  Andy, you saved me a lot of anguished looking.
Thanks.
