8N 9N 2N ford tractor cylinder crank in sleeve puller
Removing and installing cylinder sleeves can be a big pain, especially without the proper tooling.
Remove the sleeves without removing the crankshaft.
I ve heard stories of welding three places inside of the cylinder sleeves or peeling the sleeve out with a sharpened screwdriver.
One should never use extreme heat or anything that will scar the metal behind the sleeves. This tool is machined to slide inside the sleeve with a lip approximately the size of the outside of the sleeve. The main objective is to end up with a cylinder bore that is smooth and round so the rings will seal properly, the engine will run smoothly, produce maximum power and keep the oil in the crankcase where it belongs.
There's an excellent educational video on YouTube.com demonstrating the proper use of a sleeve puller. Here's the link:

With the proper tooling and instructions, you will turn a very frustrating job into something enjoyable. Once you are finished with your project, give your sleeve driver a big thank you and place it in a nice spot in your toolbox for future projects. I can machine different size pucks for your other tractor needs. You can also purchase sleeve pullers for all other tractor makes and models (Massey Ferguson, John Deere, Allis Chalmer, etc.) or any other project you have.
