Sleeve pullers are great, but here is another trick that usually works. Take a wire welder and weld one (or more) small beeds vertically on the inside of the sleeves as far as you can reach with the welder. I had one sleeve one time that we broke the sleeve puller set on. after making two seperate welds on the sleeve, it literally fell out. The weld will make the sleeve contract, thus freeing itself.

Martin, this is what I built in my home shop. Biscuit is made from piece of 1/2 inch plate,I rough cut it with torch then made My final circle on it with a sharp scribe, used grinder to make the finish product. Drilled hole for 3/4 althread, welded a large nut on the bottom.I spot welded an old compression ring on mine to keep it centered in the cylinder, but you could cut a piece of 1/4 plywood same size as inside of the sleave bore, drill hole in center and put it on top of the biscuit(hot glue it in place).

The upper part is made using 1 1/2 square tubing( 0.25 wall thickness) with solid square stock as the up rights. I used what I had on hand for up rights, you could use round stock or what ever you have. For pulling rod, I used 3/4 althread with nut welded on top.

Since original design I've had a friend machince me a biscuit for each different size of sleave I have needed to pull. HTH

The sleeve puller is easy to make yourself, but the disc is another matter. Close isn't good enough, it has to fit just right as it can't hit the cylinder walls, but still has to grab the sleeve. It has to be stepped to fit into the end of the sleeve and the hole for the threaded rod has to be exactly in the center. I assume that you are putting in new sleeves since you are taking out the old ones. Why not order the new sleeves and take one of them to your local machine shop and get them to make a disc to fit it. Those sleeves can be in there pretty tight, so you have to have a good setup.

there are sleeve pullers available. they are pretty pricey. you can make one with some 3/4 all thread and some 1-4 inch plate cut in circles to fit the sleeve. put the new sleeves in the freezer over nite and they drop in pretty easy. you may be able to borrow one from somebody also.

My neighbor bought a sleeve puller over 20 years ago. I don't know who made it it but i think it was OTC. It came in a box and had about twenty different sizes. It fits most tractors made from the 40's to late 60's. He only had to pay $50 for it.

Yea...Just at a old neighbor's auction last weekend. A sleeve puller / inserter in the original box with all the parts and instructions for each application sold for $35.00!!!!! !!
I knew I should have kept bidding, and just rented it out.
