The spray welding is a good way top go if done right but it"s not gona be cheap. I can"t understand why you don"t want to use a speedi sleeve. Their typically as hard if not harder than the origional material so they"ll last just as long, if not longer, than it origionally did before it wears out. Too using a sleeve you don"t have to worry about the temper being taken out of the axel when it"s welded (read as it has to be done right), having to figure out what material was used for the "last" repair at some future point if it gets grooved again and needs another repair, or anything else. With a sleeve it"s simply install, assemble and get on about your business. In other words using a sleeve doesn"t do anything to degrade the strength of the axel or the quality of the seal your gonna be getting, and it"s always easy to do again in the future if needed. You can spend more to weld but in the end a sleeve is just as good. Just my .02
