Speedi-sleeve part number

One of my race cars has a spridget rear axle with Winner's Circle double-bearing hubs. I am experiencing the usual leaks and I need to sleeve the axle stub before installing a new lip seal, etc.

I have done this successfully in the past using a speedi-sleeve but I cannot determine if I used pn# 99172 or 99174. The only difference is the width of the sleeve but if the seal is too wide it will interfere with the inner hub bearing. and if too narrow it will probably not allow the lip seal to work.

I see references to both pn's on various websites and would appreciate anyone telling me which one they have used successfully with the DB hub. Thanks in advance.
