The rings might be rusted into the pistons. Which means that they are not pushing out against the sleeves.You should plan on dropping the oil pan, removing the head and disconnecting the rod cap and pulling the pistons out. The $10k people are the ones who replace everything that they can remove. If this tractor is going to only do the light work on "SUNDAYS" you might only need to replace the rings and maybe the rod bearing because it is convenient.
