I need a little advice here- I'm rebuilding a 41EL. My pistons came without pin keepers. I bought a bunch of piston pin keepers 22581-32 from Dixie. These are the L cross section type. I have the proper tool 12052-32 to install them. But these keepers shatter or break every time I try to install them. I can't even slide them down the tool. Has anyone had a similar experience?
I guess I'll try another vendor - the ones I have are very stiff and brittle. Can anyone recomend a reliable source?
I measure the pin OD at ~0.793" and the keeper groove at 0.750". Can anyone confirm I'm using the correct part?
Thanks in advance,
Ralph
