i made a very stupid mistake when i was installing my piston rings on the pistons
i ended up breaking the one below the tope ring(the thickest one)
so my question is can you buy just a single ring or am i gonna have to buy another set just to get the one?
thanks in advance

im pretty sure you gotta buy a whole ring set..meaning a set for one piston..not for all 4

do you know where i can buy them for one piston?
i've only found sets for all four pistons

what brand? i know for a fact you can get one set from je....just call the piston manufacturer. they wont sell just one ring but they will sell one set (enough for 1 piston) at least that is my experience with the situation

srp pistons and the ones im using are je. so i guess i will call them and see what they can do, cause a set for one piston is by far better then a set for all four.
