Evaluating pistons/sleeves and bearings

Posted by TKN on January 29, 2005 at 17:49:22 from (63.105.65.9):

This is a first time rebuild for me, so sorry if this is a dumb question.

I am rebuiding a B Farmall. One piston was stuck, but some s few good hits with a wood block freed it up. I have removed all four pistons and rods from the crankshaft. The top of two of the pistons are slighly pitted but seems very minor. The sleeves look to be in good shape. Can I just put new rings on and put in back together and have good results?

How do I evaluate if I need new pistons and brearings on the crankshaft? If I need new crankshaft bearings, how do I account for wear?

Thanks for any advice!
