yup, have the machine shop press the rest of the pistons and sleeves out, it will save you the hassel, especially if you dont have a sleeve puller. when you go to install the new sleeves, either wipe the cylinder bores out with a scotchbrite pad, or LIGHTLY run the hone in and out a couple of times. the pistons and sleeves are usually matched, so keep each piston with the respective sleeve. when you are gonna install the sleeves, put them in the freezer overnight, then spray some kerosene in the cylinder bores, the sleeves should drop right in, lightly tap with a wood block. (dont use that big hammer ya got!!) be sure to clean the step at the top of the cylinder bore so the sleeve will go in all the way.
