K B I will heve to step in here on the cracked sleeves. First of all the tractor is close to 40 years old, so one must check everything before rebuilding to determen cost. But as for the sleeves on a 560D 282 the sleeves were a slip fit and shims were used to set the highth of the sleeves so the head gasget would hold. So they would crack the sleeves some. Back in the 60's we would shim the sleeves them take them back and put aluminum paint on them, and get use out of the sleeves. Some times just put the piston with bad sleeves put new sleeves in and the old piston and rings. The early D282 in the 706 had the loose sleeves same thing. Then they changed to a tight sleeve in that engine no shims and pretty much stoped the cracking. So if the block is ok, a cracked sleeves does mean a cracked block but you have to check. Clean the block and paint the sleeves so they fit tight, you could be ok.
