Sleeve Puck (C113)

I'm going to have a puck made up so I can pull the sleeves on my BN to repair a leaky O-Ring.

I know the ID of the sleeve is 3" but what's if OD of the base of the sleeve?

Thanks,

Those are wet sleeves meaning that the fluid is in direct contact with them. The oring holds them at the bottom, they should easily come loose without a sleeve puller.
 
I'm hoping to pull them in frame though, wouldn't the crank make it tricky trying to pound them out with a block?

Done more then one in frame. You do need to get up and under and then look it over to get the crank turned just right to do it but it can be done I know I have been there and done it on more then one wet sleeve engine
 
well you have the oil pan off ...so just use a caliper if you have and measure the o.d. other option is to take an old sleeve to the machine shop and the machinist will build it correctly. he will leave the o.d. a few thou. smaller on the puck. this allows the puck to travel up the bore without scratching it. this applies to the dry sleeve. but with a wet sleeve it is not as critical as a dry one as once the o ring is popped up you are sailing.
 
So you guys really don't think a puller is necessary then?

So just rotate the crank journal to the side, slide a board up to the bottom of the sleeve and give it a healthy whack?

I prefer to use a hyd. jack. need a flat iron and piece of hard wood. sometime these o rings are harder to move than a dry sleeve, due to rust and corrosion.
 
Like other post said 3 5/16 but have them machine a lip 3 in so it will stay centered and use 3/4 threaded rod i have 1/4 wall 2in od square tube at the top with step on the top so the sleeve can come up 1 in to clear the o-ring. Sometimes those sleeves can be realy tight and sometimes need to be pressed out
 
I drove them out with a piece of oak. Several came out with the sleeve and piston. The rest came out without the sleeve. I used a torch to free the stuck pistons. This was in 1975 on a Farmall A. Tractor was in sad shape. Hal
PS: The machine shop should know to under cut the puck to fit the sleeve.

I used a piece of oak and a big hammer to remove them on a Farmall A in 1975. My engine was stuck so several of the pistons came out with the sleeve. I used an acetylene torch to heat the old sleeve to free the piston. I installed a new sleeve kit after steam cleaning the block. The crankshaft only needed polishing and needed .002"
undersize bearings. I bought them from the auto machine shop. You need to clean that block area where the old seals were installed. There's probably a lot of rust and crud in that area. I used a 1/4" drill motor and a wire brush to clean that area. Coat your new sleeves with dish detergent and clean that recessed area where the sleeves sit at the top of the block. Hal
