Default Arp pro series rod bolts in 5.3

As title states, I have a 2003 5.3 and I want to install ARP pro series Rod bolts. Do I need to pull the little sleeves out of the rod cap or can they be left in. Just wondering what will happen if we dont pull them?

Yes you need to pull them.When you pull the bolt out the sleeve will come out with it!

Hi , thanks for the info about the sleevs because i am getting ready to put arp bolts on my SC 4.8 , have a question did you change your rod bolts on your 5.3 and if so did you use arp rod bolts and did you resize or just bolt them there to spec , i ask because i am stuck on this because i want to install them from the bottom of my truck so i will not be able to resize , thanks Eric
