A method of manufacturing an electrical connector, comprising the steps of: forming a cylindrical sleeve (26; 46; 46') with first and second opposed, axially-spaced ends ; forming circumferentially-spaced alternating notches and projections (23, 25; 110) in the first and second ends of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'), respectively; forming a cylindrical contact member , which includes first and second ends comprising respective ones of first and second transversely-extending webs , with a plurality of circumferentially-spaced contact strips having first and second ends, the first and second ends of the contact strips being joined to transversely-extending first and second parallel webs , respectively; forming a plurality of groups of first and second tabs projecting from the first and second webs , respectively; inserting the contact member into the sleeve (26; 46; 46') with the first end of the contact member engaging the notches in the second end of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); circumferentially offsetting the second end of the contact member from the first end of the contact member ; engaging the offset second end of the contact member into the notches in the first end of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); and fixing the first and second ends of the contact member to the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); characterized by : bending contact arms , being integrally disposed between each of the contact strips , axially from the first tabs towards the second tabs and extending the contact arms axially from the second end of the contact member , the contact arms being mountable in a wire crimp terminal for connecting the contact arms and an integrally-joined connector to an external electrically-conductive member. forming a cylindrical sleeve (26; 46; 46') with first and second opposed, axially-spaced ends ; forming circumferentially-spaced alternating notches and projections (23, 25; 110) in the first and second ends of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'), respectively; forming a cylindrical contact member , which includes first and second ends comprising respective ones of first and second transversely-extending webs , with a plurality of circumferentially-spaced contact strips having first and second ends, the first and second ends of the contact strips being joined to transversely-extending first and second parallel webs , respectively; forming a plurality of groups of first and second tabs projecting from the first and second webs , respectively; inserting the contact member into the sleeve (26; 46; 46') with the first end of the contact member engaging the notches in the second end of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); circumferentially offsetting the second end of the contact member from the first end of the contact member ; engaging the offset second end of the contact member into the notches in the first end of the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); and fixing the first and second ends of the contact member to the sleeve (26; 46; 46'); characterized by : bending contact arms , being integrally disposed between each of the contact strips , axially from the first tabs towards the second tabs and extending the contact arms axially from the second end of the contact member , the contact arms being mountable in a wire crimp terminal for connecting the contact arms and an integrally-joined connector to an external electrically-conductive member. <EOS>
