Tractor Repair: WET SLEEVE SIZE, super c, o ring


Question
1953FARMALL SUPER C-- LOWER OPENING WITH O RING WHERE BOTTOM OF SLEEVE GOES THUR--HOW MANY SIZES DID THEY MANUFACTURE, AND WHAT WHERE THE SIZES. I ORDERED OVERHAUL KIT ON LINE. THE SLEEVES ARE APROX 100 THOUSANTS TOO LARGE, WILL NOT GO IN.

Answer
  There was only one size that I am aware of.  I cannot find any serial number breaks or any changes to the engine for a Super C.  From the information that I found, the outside diameter of the sleeves should be 3 7/16".  I think someone sent you the wrong overhaul kit, or at least the wrong sleeves.
