Got some parts

[kkvslayer]

Got my sleeve,piston and clutch basket yesterday,How easy/hard is it to install the sleeve?I could get it done for free here,but I'm not sure if I should trust my buddy to do it right,He says he did it on a Honda 350 Quad but I'm just wondering,Can the sleeve change shape during installation?will the std piston be a sure fit?How much work is required on the edges on the ports,I got one company in B.C. who will do it for $175.00.What to do?

Would that be, Mongoose?

If ya want to send it to someone good at reasonable price in B.C. , I can get a phone number of a local guy who is very good and way better price

To my knowlage, the factory sleeve has "lugs" on it, and is cast in position. It must be machined away, and cannot be pressed out.

Then the new sleeve is pressed in.

The cost of the machine work + the sleeve itself is very close to the cost of the entire jug, which is what I suggested in the first place.

Aligning the ports can be tricky. You only want ot press it in once.

Good luck.

The piston is different too,its not cut out around the pin on both sides,looks heavier

Its an '86, they don't make a new jug for those anymore.

Wiseco changed their design. Evereyone suspects its a cost savings through less machine time type situation.

I wouldn't pay more than $100 (USD) for the work.
