Default Piston help please.

I am replacing the piston and sleeve in my T-Maxx with a new set from Sirio, it comes with these "G" clips to keep the piston rod from floating out of the piston head, my question is how the heck are you supposed to get these hair like g clips in. I have messed with it for over an hour and have ruined the 1 extra I had, someone wrote somewhere to just put on the white caps, but the old nor the new have these, just "G" clips.

Thanks,

Mike

small needle nose pliers, or a small flat head screw driver is all I cn say, the rest is up to you, its a little tricky at first but when you get the feel for it, its a piece of pie Good luck

Default DONE

I picked up a pair of precision tweezers, they taper down to a needle point, and that did the trick. I found the tweezers at home depot in the tool dept. They make a great addition to my hobbie sized tool set.

Thanks,
Mike
