    I know you’re probably not ready to spend that kind of dough and it’s probably more than what you paid for the truck … but everything on these trucks are a fortune …. Bob

    I don’t think your sleeves are going to pop out but who knows I freed up a Chrysler slant six years ago just with mystery oil at typing the Pistons real light with a chunk of wood and I hammer again patience don’t get in a hurry but If the rings are rusted to the cylinder walls you’re better off to punch them out and at least clean everything and reassemble .. Good luck Bob
