Hi all I''ve recently took apart the barrel /piston etc and was wondering if I could put it all back together I.E putting the piston in the barrel then putting it together with the gudgin pin instead of trying to squeeze the piston into the barrel whilst it's sitting on the conrod

Just thinking out loud as I would of thought this will be a lot easier

Yeh" my mate does it that way ,, i find it a pig to hold and enter pin, then insert clip, i just squeeze rings,, get a help to lower barrel,
