JE Pistons Wire Lock JE Pistons Wire Lock JE Pistons Most JE shelf pistons include double spiro locks as standard equipment. These locks are installed by spreading the lock between 1/8" and 1/4" and rotating the lock into the groove in the piston pin boss. Wire locks are installed in much the same manner but require chamfered wrist pins. Wire locks tend to spread side loads over more of the piston pin boss area and are considered to be a stronger method of holding the pin in place. Hook wire locks have a built in hook at the end gap. The purose for this style of wire lock is to prevent rotation within the lock groove itself. Tru arc locks fall between these two and can be used with the stock sharp edge wrist pins. The advantage of tru-arc locks is ease of installation and they can be re-used unlike spiro locks, however they are not recommended for medium to high horsepower applications.This Part Fits: Year Make Model Submodel 2002-2016 Honda CRF450R Base 2005-2017 Honda CRF450X Base 2006-2014 Honda TRX450R Base 2006-2014,2016-2018 Kawasaki KX450F Base 2007-2012 KTM 450 SX-F Base 2007-2012 KTM 450 XC-F Base 2006-2011 Suzuki LT-R450 QuadRacer Base 2010-2019 Suzuki RMX450Z Base 2001-2002 Yamaha WR426F Base 2000-2002 Yamaha YZ426F Base
