I can't find a new crush sleeve!!

[mvfd70]

I couldn't believe it. I've got the rear end at the shop (I don't have a press) getting the pinion installed. I was able to buy new pinion bearings, carrier bearings, and wheel bearings along with new axle and pinion seals. The only part that I cannot find at any parts store (nor can my mechanic seem to find one either) is the crush sleeve. LMC calls it a bearing spacer. It is part number 30-2916. I was just going to order one from there. They're charging 7.95 for one. But they wan't 7.25 for UPS shipping. I don't really want to spend 15 bucks for that little part. I havn't tried the dealership yet but I doubt they'll be much help. Any suggestions?

There. My rant is over. Guess I may break down and order one.
