The butcher sleeves have a small "step" at the end of them. It wouldn't work. I believe Fit produces a plastic sleeve specifically for the OG pegs.

I made these with Fit OGs and 1664 Easy Slider Sleeves (easy to get if you're in Canada). Just needed to cut a bit off the sleeves and put a washer behind the pegs.

thats a sweet idea with the washer. ive got a few random plastics and sleeves ive picked up from various places, thats a great way to make different brands play ball
