I don't think your Cub will have sleeves, you may have a ridge near the top of the cylinder. You would need to rent, borrow or buy a ridge reamer. Once you have that engine torn down the cylinders should be measured for wear.
The C-113 engine is easier to work on as it has wet sleeves. I did a Farmall A back in 1975 and the engine was stuck. I pulled the engine as the crankshaft was worn. That's the best way to rebuild the engine is to pull it. Take the head, connecting rods and crankshaft to your local auto machine shop. They won't grind the crankshaft unless it needs it. They will measure it then determine what needs to be done. Buy your bearings from them. It may only need to be polished. It will look new then. Have them rebuild the head. You can buy your sleeve kit from this forum or any auto parts store. In 1975 I bought my kit from the local IH dealer and back then the kit cost $80.00. Have the shop to install the old connecting rods to your new pistons.
The old sleeves are not a press fit. I drove mine out using a piece of oak and a hammer. You will also find the old sleeve seals once the sleeves are out. You need to remove them and clean that block area thoroughly of any dirt and rust. Shine a good light in that area as the block may need cleaning. Take pictures during the teardown and make notes. They will come in handy during the rebuild.
Separate the parts as you remove them. Put them in cardboard boxes and mark where they were removed. Will save a lot of time during the rebuild. Most of the parts will need cleaning be sure to place them in the right box after cleaning. That block area at the top on the block needs to be cleaned where the top of the new sleeves sit. Here's a pic of that Farmall A in 1975. I didn't finish it until 1976 and it has the 16-inch plow on it. Hal
