Project Cheap & Nasty Updated With Back Story

Wasn't questioning that so much as asking how to do that job without the "right" tools
Depends on how the piston's made. Some need piston pin arbors and some don't. These don't. Their skirt will support the piston just fine as long as you're careful and watch what you're doin. I've pressed so many off and on like this I've lost count. Most American stuff has enough skirt material to do it.
