Description
When your big six-cylinder diesel starts losing power, burning oil, or blowing blue smoke on startup, worn cylinders and pistons are usually the culprit. This complete sleeve and piston kit gives you everything needed to bring that 466 cubic inch powerhouse back to full strength without the expense of a complete engine rebuild.
What You’re Getting
- Complete 4.56″ bore sleeves, 3-ring pistons, rings, pins, and retainers – one full rebuild kit
- All components precisely matched to work with connecting rod R71074
- OEM-quality parts that meet factory specifications for proper compression and oil control
- Three-ring piston design for improved sealing and longer service life
- Includes wrist pins and retainers so you’re not hunting for small parts
Built for Heavy-Duty Work
This kit is designed specifically for the 466 CID six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine – a workhorse powerplant found in heavy-duty tractors and industrial equipment. These engines power through everything from deep tillage to heavy loader work, PTO applications, and long days pulling big implements. The turbocharger adds extra stress, which makes quality cylinder components even more important.
Made to Last
Farm and industrial diesel engines take a beating, especially when they’re turbocharged. This kit uses cast iron sleeves and precision-machined pistons that handle the heat cycles, combustion pressures, and constant vibration that come with heavy-duty operation. The three-ring piston design provides better oil control and compression sealing than older two-ring setups.
Installation Notes
This is designed as an in-frame rebuild kit, so you can do the work with the engine still in the machine. Make sure your connecting rods are marked R71074 before ordering – different rod designs require different piston configurations. You’ll want to have the block decked and cylinders honed professionally for best results.
