A method of making an axle sleeve includes forming a main body comprising a cylinder and forming an expansion member whereby a diameter of the main body may be varied. The method includes cutting an inner helical cutout comprising a first slit defined through the main body and extending helically from an inner edge of the main body, cutting an outer helical cutout comprising a second slit defined through the main body and extending helically from an outer edge of the main body, forming an inner edge remaining portion comprising an annular section of the main body unbroken by the inner helical cutout, and forming an outer edge remaining portion comprising an annular section of the main body unbroken by the outer helical cutout.
