Engine Sleeve Service Tools

I hang out over in the Ford area but I've had a couple inquiries from Ferguson owners about the sleeve service toolkits I make for vintage Ford tractors. They wanted to know if my tools could be used to R&R sleeves in the older Ferguson motors. I have no experience with the Ferguson motors but I have been inside the Standard motor used in Triumph TR-3/4's which I think is very similar. The wet sleeves used in the Standard motor are rather beefy castings and much simpler to service than the dry sleeves used in the Fords.

I think all that's needed to adapt my tools to the Ferguson motors is a stepped bushing with the appropriate diameters on it. It would be used to pull the old sleeve and drive in the new one using the jackscrew and handle from my existing toolkits. I'd also like a single bushing to fit both the TO-20 and the TO-30 motors if at all possible. Can some kind knowledgable person provide the standard bores and OD's of the sleeves used in those motors? A crude dimensioned sketch would be great! If they are like the sleeves in the Standard they have a machined neck on the bottom where they fit into the web in the block. The OD of the machined portion is the dimension I need.

Thanks greatly,

These Ferguson sleeves are not as difficult as the Ford. I think I had $5 in parts... Worked great for me.. Jim

Yes these sleeves are surely easier than the ones in the Fords if my experience on the Standard motors is any indication and I'm sure your setup works just fine. As I said I have folks who have already purchased the Ford puller and would like to be able to use it on Fergusons as well. All I need is definitive dimensions for the different sleeve variants. I believe you listed bores of 3.1875, 3.250, 3.3175 ,and 3.375 as common variants in another post. Assuming those are corrsect for the bores what I need to know is what the OD's of the different variants are where they seat in the block. I'd like to ensure the puller bushing will pass through the web in the block.
