    Default Piston rings

    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

    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.
