Default Axle sleeves and gussets? Or just gussets?

Im going to be running 35s with no plan of going to 37s unless i get a d44 up front, can i get away with just gussets or are sleeves a smart choice? Its my dd and i dont do crazy wheeling much, mostly fire roads and small trails but i will be planning trips to rauche creek offroad park since my vacation house is fairly close to there

I only gusseted mine. I try to go as fast as I can without losing control on fire roads full of pot holes and washboard, which I believe is where most abuse happens. No problems.

If you regear I would just go ahead and sleeve at the same time, it doesn't cost that much more.
