BLENDING CYLINDER SLEEVES
In order to blend the bottom of a cylinder repair sleeve to the step, I have found it best to indicate the boring bar on the lower portion of the old cylinder that is left from leaving a bottom step. After installing the sleeve, the ID needs to be bored and honed to size. By indicating the machine to the bottom portion, rather than the sleeve ID, this will blend the sleeve to the old cylinder perfectly.
