I assume by "sleeve: you are referring to the Sonnax reinforcement sleeve for the input drum. The stock steel molded forward and overrun pistons will not work with that. That is why the kit comes with a custom overrun piston and you have to use either a old stock aluminum piston or the crazy-expensive Sonnax billet piston.

And Happy Thanksgiving!
