JE Pistons

Post by cobbadiggabuddyblooo » Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:24 am

Looking on the offical J E site in the U.S. they show a piston with two idetification numbers stamped under it. One being a part number close to the pin a six digit number starting with PT****** and if specially ordered another six digit number close to the outer skirt..
Has anyone got a copy of the number relating to the JE 878 piston for the TRX..
It seems difficult to order these here in OZ so I'm looking at options thro the U.S.
Any help or input on this matter would be appreciated..
cheers

I used http://www.kedo.comfor my valves etc. end up with shipping less than half what I would have paid to get them here.
