mrsmackpaul Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 We still call them speedie sleeves out here On real badly worn shafts you can fill the groove with a 2 pack resin and emery smooth, then the speedie sleeve This gives the sleeve support Paul 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 seems like if you do that right Paul, there wont be a bulge in the sleeve,, sounds better than welding it up and turning it back down.... I like it.. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559861 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Weeks Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Metal filled, machinable epoxies work better than silicone under the sleeve. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 The good thing about these sleeves is it can.be done at home On long shafts on farm machinery I use a bit of water pipe get it on All this works well A lot of people put loctite on so the sleeve seals up 100% oil tight No matter whether it is loctite or permatex, I feel either would be fine and seal up all okay Paul 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559865 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Weeks Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 Exhaust tubing also works well to drive the sleeve for front spindles, where the seal position is so far back from the end of the shaft. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559888 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 It was a long time ago, but I think mine came with some sort of a Driver sleeve to hit with the hammer. I do remember I didn’t have a whole Lotta trouble putting it on, but it did not leak at all. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74624-power-steering-pump-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-559904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 These guys should have a rebuild kit they had the parts for my 66 in stock. Good luck.
