Bushing with sleeve

A method, comprising:

• forming a bushing having a substantially annular shape with an outer surface and an inner surface opposing the outer surface and defining a bore of the bushing, the bushing extending from a first end ring to an opposing second end ring;
• forming a rough sleeve having an insert and a ring portion disposed substantially perpendicularly to the insert;
• depositing a coating onto the rough sleeve to form a sleeve;
• and
• inserting the sleeve into the bore of the bushing, such that the insert is in contact with a portion of the inner surface of the bushing and the ring portion of the sleeve is in contact with at least one of the first end ring or the second end ring of the bushing.

A machine, comprising:

• a bushing having a substantially annular shape with an outer surface and an inner surface opposing the outer surface and defining a bore of the bushing, the bushing extending from a first end ring to an opposing second end ring;
• a first sleeve having a first insert and a first ring portion disposed substantially perpendicularly to the first insert, the first ring portion having a first inner ring surface and a first outer ring surface opposing the first inner ring surface;
• and
• a second sleeve having a second insert and a second ring portion disposed substantially perpendicularly to the second insert, the second ring portion having a second inner ring surface and a second outer ring surface opposing the second inner ring surface, wherein:
• the first sleeve is disposed on the bushing such that the first insert of the first sleeve is in contact with the inner surface of the bushing and the first inner ring surface of the first sleeve is in contact with the first end ring, and
• the second sleeve is disposed on the bushing such that the second insert of the second sleeve is in contact with the inner surface of the bushing and the second inner ring surface of the second sleeve is in contact with the second end ring.
