C113 Cylinder Sleeve Puck

I am looking at doing a rebuild on my Farmall B engine this winter. I am starting to gather and prepare for what I will need. Does anyone have a sleeve puller puck that will fit the original 3 inch sleeve bore that they would be willing to sell? I thought I would ask here before going to a machine shop. Nearest CIH dealership is almost an hour away. I want to have a puck ready just in case using a piece of wood doesn't work.
 
I've BTDT many times. What I do is pull the head and oil pan off while the tractor is still together and then use a hyd jack and a piece of oak 2X4 that is cut such that it just fits under the sleeve and jack it up. NEVER had a sleeve that would not pop out doing it that way. Or if you have the engine off the tractor flip it upside down and laying on a couple of 2X4 or 4X4 and lay the piece of oak on the sleeve and hit ti with a hammer. Again I have done it both ways and NEVER had one that did not com out. By the way do not go with the grain of the 2X4 because it will split it
 
Why go to a machine shop. Take a piece of a plate cut to close size. Then with a hole drilled in it put a bolt through it chuck in drill press and run a grinder against the edge till it reaches the size you want. Whether to fit on the bottom or inside of it. You could even by clamping a tool bit to the table top, you could even cut the top part down so it would fit inside the sleeve. Leaving a ledge to catch the end of the sleeve.
 
On theses wet sleeve engine like the ones in the Farmalls I have NEVER had to do any thing fancy to remove the sleeves. A simple piece of oak 2X4 cut to fit the bottom of the sleeve and a hammer is all that has even been needed by me

"do not go with the grain of the 2X4"

I have no idea what this means.

Sounds simple to me.

If you hit the end of the cylinder with the end grain of the wood it will split, even if it's Oak. Best to cut the part that is pushing on the bottom of the sleeve across the grain.

You could make a disk out of the oak or some other hard wood then use a piece of pine to push on it.

Those liners should not be too hard to move unless there is some major rusting of the block lower bores.
 
Well think about it. When you split wood for a wood stove you do not split it the same way as you cut it with the chain saw you split it going with the grain. Sam holds true for using a piece of 2X4 oak board. Go with the grain and you will split the board. Go so not with the grain you will not split it you will push the sleeve up before you do much of any thing to the including putting a dent in the board
 
easy to have a shop make one or I can make one for you/ Getting a block of wood with the crank in is not fun and sometimes those sleeves need pulling more than just the little they will move till the block bottoms out . Go with the puck as I have had to have them pressed out.
