My main reason for the protection from heat is the Stainless Steel Sleeve. I don't know if its pressed into place or some other method of locking it into place that the heat might damage.
From my experience sleeves are pressed into position. Thin ones as in brake cylinder liners would take a very close fitting mandrel to hold it in position as it goes in with a ridge to do the actual pushing. Cylinder sleeves in a motor are usually very robust and very hard to hurt. I have always made my own pullers and pushers for putting into my old tractor engines. I have a set of bushing drivers but they are strictly for heavier thickness sleeves.

I got curious about how Karp does it. "All of our sleeves are installed with a special sealer/retainer and then press slip fit into the cylinder."
I would have thought it would be an interference fit. Heat would probably not be good in this case.
This reminded me I need to disassemble my calipers and get the dot 3 out of them since I will switch to dot 5. I'm hoping to get my new Zeus calipers soon instead. The virus has really messed things up, tired of people dying.
66 stroker, almost done.
67 basket case, paint coming soon.
The guy at the hardware store thought an EasyOut would work. The bleeder is hollow, so maybe?
All this in case you don’t have a trusted machine shop, like I used.
I hope the other side is easier. I plan to open the cylinders to check and clean.

And you will get stainless Speed Bleeders? Hint, hint.

I already have the Dorman bleeders, so I will have to consider this down the road.
Hoping this caliper, cylinders and pads looks correct so that I can finish this wheel.

Oh that’s right. Not only did I forget about Ray’s post, I don’t understand it either.
I will check for markings on the pads viewtopic.php?p=309274#p309274
