Haha no it doesn't! Did you not learn anything whilst being raped for diff set-up Renato?

The crush sleeve between the pinion bearings isn't really re-useable, so if you are swapping input flanges then you should replace it. It holds the compression between the two pinion bearings, dictating the amount of preload on them (VERY important if you want your gearset to last).
