I'm going to put a new oem piston/rings in my SRX and just thought I'd put this out there for all to give their opinion on.Do you guys always replace the pin even though as the piston isn't being changed due to a meltdown just wear?I will be putting in a new needle bearing and cir clips but there isn't really anything wrong with the pin in there now,this may sound like I'm cheaping out here and in the past I've always put new ones in but I don't know if it would hurt anything by not putting a new one in.
 

if it's within spec(19.95-20mm) fourbarrel and it looks good yet reuse it, ihave many times not just on sleds eather.

or replace it,there cheap....
 
I would replace them with a wiseco pin.

The wiseco pin is only 2/3 the weight of an OEM pin and probably cheaper
