I'm shortly going to be replacing the sleeves and pistons in my 484. As I have no experience in engine internal work I'm fairly nervous about doing this!!!
My question is, do I need a sleeve puller to get wet sleeves out (and back in), or is it possible using a lump of wood and hammer/hydraulic jack?

Most of the time you only need to move it a little bit & it will come on out. On an engine that I just pulled the sleeves on, I had to make a puller because the sleeve didn't hang down into the crankcase far enough to get much of a push on. We took a piece of round stock & turned it down on a lathe to the size needed. I then used a piece of flatstock on top & allthread for the rod. Came out real easy.

Ted,wet sleeves are easy to remove and replace,anyway those I've worked on.You can use a block of wood and a big hammer to drive the sleeves out.Going back in is easy,just take your time.The recommened procedure is to clean the area that the rubber o-ring goes in,you can use a wire brush.Take the new sleeve and slide it down into place to see how it fits(WITHOUT the o-ring in place).If all fit good,put o-ring in place,I put dish soap on the outside of the o-ring and on the sleeve.Then slide the new sleeve in place,it should go in easy.You may want to put some copper sealer around the lip of the sleeve where it matches the block and you may want to LIGHTLY tap the top with a wood block and a hammer to make cure it seats.Then add water to the block untill it is full,let set for awhile(like overnight)and check for leaks.I like to use a spacer and washer to hold the sleeves down while I put the pistions in,just in case the sleeve wants to slips.

I used to work for a John Deere dealer many years ago when 4020s were the current model, we drove those sleeves out using a block of hardwood and a hammer.

I changed a damaged sleeve in a D15 Allis with no puller once but that was when I was just a kid and didn't know any better. Maybe you could borrow a puller.
