As was said, you need to measure the bore at the top just under the ridge left where the tip ring stops. Now compare this to the measurement at the bottom where almost no wear happens. Now look in your manual and see what it says about the amount of taper allowed. If you are at it or close get sleevs, if you aren't more than half of the allowable limit you might consider not getting new sleeves. How much is the tractor to be used? How well do you want it to run? That kind of stuff. At the least the liners will need to be honed out to roughen them up so new rings will wear into them, and the ridge at the top must be removed so the new square top edge of the ring doesn't hit it and damage the newe ring or piston. When all is considered this is why most people probably go with new liners.
