Hub fuses used to be available for Sierras,
but I never saw anyone using them.
They were dear, and had to save a lot of cv's to pay for themselves.
Changing a cv becomes easy with practise anyway

They aren't sleeves, they are dowels. I'm not sure that warn hubs for sierras have dowels. And if they do, you'd still need to drill the holes in the hub for the dowels to locate. But.... this could be done with OEM hubs too. |

Isn't the weak spot on CroMo Sierra CVs the groove cut in the short side next to the spline at the diff end, for this very reason? Then you replace the shaft - not the shafts and CV. Also, if it was a Jeep Wrangler - they have uni-joints instead of CVs... |

Don't even bother thinking about it, just use it and if the bolts break put stronger ones in. |
