Reply To: SouthBend A Stuck Piston

[George Emmanuel]

I recently removed 2 pistons for a new member. Fabricated a puller with cable going around the wrist pins so no pressure was applied to the rod and used eye bolts. I did weld the eye bolts so they wouldn’t open during tension. The frame I made is well away from the cylinder flange to keep pressure from breaking a flange. Got both pistons out and saved the rings….but as everyone has said so far, take your time.
