Hi Glen, List
The pistons are standard and scrap metal as far as I'm concerned. I local
garage has a hydraulic press that should do the job but they'll want anything
up
to #20 to do the job (many more jobs and I'll have spent enough to get my own
press). I've done A+ rods with a big drift and hammer is this safe for these
rods too?
