STEEL WHEELS
3 standard-fitment sleeve optionsHOW SOLUTION B WORKS
Three sleeves on each side. Six sleeves complete the steer axle.
INSTALL THREE SLEEVES

CENTER THE BRAKE DRUM & WHEEL
The three sleeves provide centering points for the compatible brake drum and wheel during installation.
REPEAT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE
Install three additional sleeves at approximately the 12, 4 and 8 positions on the opposite side of the steer axle. Three sleeves on each side complete the steer axle.
CORRECT FITMENT STARTS WITH THE RIGHT MEASUREMENTS
Confirm the wheel type and brake-drum hole dimensions before ordering.
CONFIRM YOUR WHEEL TYPE
Determine whether the steer wheel is aluminum or steel. Solution B sleeve options are specific to the applicable wheel type.
MEASURE THE BRAKE-DRUM HOLE
Use calipers to measure the inside diameter of the applicable brake-drum hole. This is the primary selection measurement.
CONFIRM THE STUD HOLE
Solution B is designed for the applicable 26.75mm wheel/rim stud-hole application. Verify this requirement before ordering.
The primary Solution B options shown in the selector use a 1/2" brake-drum hole depth. Applications requiring a different depth are available under Unique Fitment Applications below.
SIMPLE INSTALLATION
Three sleeves per side provide stay-on centering for the brake drum and steer wheel.
PREPARE THE ASSEMBLY
Remove the wheel and brake drum as required. Clean the applicable mounting surfaces and verify the correct Solution B sleeve fitment before installation.
INSTALL THREE SLEEVES
Install three compatible Solution B sleeves at approximately the 12, 4 and 8 positions on the wheel studs.
INSTALL THE BRAKE DRUM & WHEEL
Install the compatible brake drum over the three sleeves, followed by the steer wheel over those same three centering positions.
SECURE THE ASSEMBLY
Install the lug nuts and follow the applicable manufacturer's tightening and torque specifications. The Solution B sleeves remain installed on the vehicle.
UNIQUE FITMENT APPLICATIONS
Additional Solution B sleeves are available for applications outside the primary fitment selector, including lightweight brake-drum applications and other specialized fitments.
LIGHTWEIGHT BRAKE-DRUM APPLICATIONS
These Solution B sleeves were developed for applicable lightweight brake drums requiring a shallower brake-drum hole depth.
