I got the set of 8 piston/rod combs in a bag that was in a box with paper around the bag as filler... Yep... 8 piston/rod combos tossed in a bag with nothing but air to keep them apart... Not one made it to my house in useable condition... What a complete waste of perfectly good parts!! So frustrating!! And the search continues!! All I need are three pistons... I'm sure I can reuse the rods!!



This is the first one I pulled out...



I'm working out the details on my valve spring compressor using the one for my Jag XK8 rebuild....

Cheers for now!!!

So you just paid for handling someone elses garbage???? They just put the pistons in a box and no wrapping etc.? WOW sorry to hear. Did these come from a dismantler? Even they usually package to ship.
