Kent-Moore | Piston Pin Service Set | J-24086-C
ENGINES WITH PRESSED WRIST PINS
The 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.
