This axle sleeve is a replacement bushing for the front axle assembly. It fits into the axle housing and supports the half-shaft, maintaining correct alignment and reducing rotational friction between the shaft and the housing. A worn bushing allows excessive shaft play, which can lead to seal leakage and accelerated wear on the axle shaft and differential components. Manufactured by Carraro, this sleeve is machined to the same internal and external diameters as the original part, ensuring it seats correctly in the housing without requiring additional shimming. On installation, ensure the bore is clean and free of debris before pressing the sleeve into place.
