How dangerous is this, replacing a sleeve with cold weld

Hey there
I have gotten a used trailmaster lift kit.
It is of course missing the tapered sleeves for the spindle adaptors.
Its gonna be hell to track down the tapered sleeves from all the accounts I have read.
So
can I just put the bolts in and cold weld them into place. the cold weld taking up the place of the tapered sleeves?

Thanks in advance for directing me away from this or encouraging
Much appreciated.

Do it right the first time. Get the parts needed, do it right, and don't carry on worrying about it.

Try contacting Trailmaster directly to get the parts... Or the closest dealer of Trailmaster Suspensions...
