Default White LS Sleeves VS Wedekind for ASW 19?

Just to reiterate, as JS mentioned, the Uerling Sleeves only work on "straight" L'Hotellier fittings. They don't work on 90 degree fittings which my glider has for the ailerons.

I used Uerling Sleeves on the airbrake straight fittings because these were a BITCH to get the original safety pins in while trying to look inside a black hole on a white ship in bright sunlight. The ailerons were much easier and I continued to use the pins until I went Wedekind.

Also, I was told way back when that the Uerling Sleeves needed to be replaced every 2 years. Anyone know about that?
