Aoe was good piston, not so much lol
Edit if you look closely at the front of the metal tooth you can see the crack and if you wher to push on the metal tooth it wobbles and will lay out flat if pushed towards the other teeth

WoW, That's the first time I seen a piston fail there.
May I ask what spring your pushing.
I think some time's people expect to much from stock part's.
Not pointing any fingers.
