wrist pin clip

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where I can get a new or good used wrist pin clip?  I just started to put the new connecting rod in my K301 and found one of the clips was worn and bad.  I attached a pic with the dimensions of the worn clip.  you can see the wear on the two sides.  The other clip has two of the bent over ends so I assume this one broke off.

I don't know if a different style of piston is different.

Well... my parts stores carry a wide variety of retainers... so I would recommend visiting a part's store where you will pay a couple of cents.... :ph34r:

 

5$ is outrageous... :jaw: :huh: :eusa-snooty:

I probably have a few sitting on my shelf on my "Wall of Shame"  I can take one off and stick it in an envelope.
