Is this a sleeve?

like the title says, I am sure that it is otherwise there is no way to fit it over the bushing that I installed on the rear control arm. I am just looking for confirmation before I "F" something up.

no one knows? Sorry for the bump but since tomorrows project is to finish the rear of my car, and the hubs are the only thing left before the wheels go on... I kinda need to know.

Also anyone use the Dupli-color brake caliper paint kit? I am thinking of using it, I know dupli-color is a good paint brand, and since the paint kit is like $15 at my local store I was like... HELL YEAH, will look sweet with the RB sways and springs and the KYB AGX shocks (am goin with red theme for suspension and brakes).

Thanks

Yes it is...

To move the sleeve:
If you keep the hub in that position, but the bolt back through those holes starting from the bottom going up. When the threaded end is in the middle put the nut back on far enough that it won't fall off. Now you can tap on the head of the bolt and push the sleeve back out.

PM me if that doesn't make sense I'll try more detail.

no I gotcha, I was just going to use like a c-clamp to push it back out to proper position then... just wanted to make sure I wasn't goign to f it up if I did that... thanx for the help tomorrows work should be easy enough then for the rear...

I just have to hope I didn't f up my front knuckle now when I drilled out the bolt that broke off for the balljoint connection :(

I may have drilled into the threads on one side and so retapping my not work and I will have to replace with a used knuckle, which then could have bearing issues and stuff.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I shake my fist at god sometimes when I am working on this car... then I realize ... he doesn't care!!!
