circlips

[Guy]

Anyone know if there's a difference between OE circlips and the ones wiseco supply with their kits? They appear to measure exactly the same. Reason I ask is I damaged one of the wiseco circlips fitting the kit and I have a pile of unused suzuki ones.

I would bet they are the same BUT...that knawing feeling that it was not exactly what should be in there would force me to go buy a new one. They're a $1 each here in the Colonies so they are probably less than a pound where you're located. CW18 is the part number for the one you need.

They would probably only be a euro or two here in Ireland too, but I can't buy them off the shelf, they have to be ordered. I want to strap this thing together over the weekend, that's why I was hoping to get away with the suzuki item.

Hi

I myself would used the Suzuki circlips,if the spring pressure is as strong as in the wiseco circlips.
(In my pistons there is teflon caps instead of circlips)
