Description

When your Ford diesel starts smoking blue or losing power on hills, those worn cylinders and pistons are telling you it’s time for some serious attention. When your older Ford or New Holland diesel starts losing compression and burning oil, it’s usually the piston rings calling it quits. If you’re planning to rebore those cylinders .030 inch over to clean them up, this ring set gets your engine back to sealing tight and running strong. This complete rebore kit gives you everything needed to bring that 4-cylinder diesel back to life with fresh sleeves, pistons, and rings all in one package.

What You’re Getting

Complete set of four RBS514 cylinder sleeves to restore proper bore dimensions
Four matching D6NN6108Y pistons designed to handle the compression and heat of diesel operation
Complete DFPN6149E ring set for all four cylinders with proper compression and oil control rings
All components match original Ford specifications – no guessing if parts will work together

Built for Real Farm Work

This ring set works with the 158, 175, and 233 cubic inch diesel engines found in those reliable workhorses like the Ford 2000, 3000, 5000 series and New Holland 2600, 3600, 5600, 5700 tractors. These are the tractors that handle daily farm chores from loader work to field cultivation, and they need an engine that can run all day without complaint.

Made to Last

Tru-Power builds these kits to handle the demands of farm life—dust, heat, heavy loads, and long hours. The sleeves are designed to handle the thermal cycling between cold morning starts and hot summer work, while the pistons are built for the higher compression ratios these diesels need to make their power.

Installation Notes

Remember, .030 overbore means your cylinders need to be properly machined and measured before installation. Take your time with ring end gaps and make sure everything’s clean during assembly. A ridge reamer and proper honing are your friends here – don’t skip the prep work or you’ll be doing this job again sooner than you’d like. This is a complete teardown job that requires machine shop work, but when it’s done right, you’ll have an engine that runs like new.
