ENGINES
WITH PRESSED WRIST PINS J- 24086-C is used to remove and install wrist
pins in most (pressed) piston assemblies. This kit contains an
assortment of tools in a plastic case for storage. With various
adapters, the tool supports the rod and piston to allow the wrist pin
press load to be absorbed by the rod, not the piston. Without this
support method the piston and rod could be damaged during pin removal
or installation. The tool is used with a shop press. Pins must be
installed to a specific depth for centering in the rod/piston assembly.
NOTICE: Late model and future General Motors engines will feature
"floating" piston pins versus pressed pins. This tool is not required
for floating pin assembly / disassembly.
