pin locks part II
 

OK, i got a lot of advice about using spirolocks as opposed to me wanting to use Tru-Arcs. so i will use one spirolock and one Tru-Arc on each end.

sorry I thought that would be funny.

just to make you aware. I just balanced a set of pistons this week from Keith Black of their forged Icon series that uses spiral locks. So to answer a question" yes, some one still produces pistons that uses the locks"

Ok, since you digested all the info, tell us which lock will you put on the outside? Oh! I bet you are going to stagger them from piston to piston.
Why not just put the tru arcs on one end of the pen and the spiral locks on the other end? That way you could be a test bed and run them until one side or the other fails...

Don't forget to have the lock pins balanced separately.
