Slider still worth using?

I was going to clean them up a little with a dremmel but I was just wondering if you guys think they are worth cleaning up and throwing in the car. The transmission gets rebuild about every 3-4k miles so if it lasts me that long I'd be happy.

Ouch.
When I took mine apart I reused them and they were slightly rounded but no where near that. I would replace that one for sure.

Pic 2 is the worst one. Pic 1 is a good average of how the rest are. But they are pretty bad huh? Damn I was hoping to use them.

Nope thats toast. BTW this is the wear one can expect when a sleeve has been reworked like this one. You do know that many of the splines have been cut out and the synchronizing is left to the few remaining teeth, right? That is not a standard sleeve.
