I've only dealt with arias and je pistons. Those are easy to install on rods cause they have lock rings to hold the wrist pin in place. Well now I'm installing CTR piston on some LS eagle rods. How does the wrist pin stay in place? Am I missing something? I have the pistons, writst pins and rods, but how does the wrist pin not slid out while it's in the engine?

 

Grooves will have to be machined into the PCT piston to accept the wire locks. I would just switch to using a forged piston with the grooves already machined. It'll be a lighter piston anyways for the same dome displacement..

 

Well I already bought the PCT's. Is there anther way?

 

there is no other way to do it if you plan on using the PCT pistons, unless you want to put them on stock ls rods.

yeah have them machined.

 

Well I tried searching for lock rings, but I don't know what size pct's would use. Anyone know where or what size lock rings to use?

 

Anyone?

 

So installing jdm itr pistons with eagle rods requires the same thing or are the able to be pressed in?
