GBS should be able to show you one....
The Speedy sleeve is a very thin piece of sheet metal that will slide over the scored area of your yokes and insure that the new neoprene sealing surface is not worn down in the first 5 miles. They include instructions for installation ...usually using red locktite.
You need to measure the exact diam. of the yoke for GBS...... I usually run the yoke on a lathe and with a very fine file polish any raised burrs that may be present.... it leaves you with a clean surface and leaves the missing metal rut exposed. The sleeve is pushed on ONCE with locktite and it will fill the rutted gap....sleeves are only a few thousand thick and provide a slick surface for the seal to rub against. They are expensive but cheaper than having a machinist weld and resurface the yoke to spec.
Good luck!!!!
Do a quick search on SKF speedy sleeves for pictures of the cup used for installing and how the extra is peeled off.
