i got a set of piston rings for my rancher. Does anyone know of a ring compreesor that can be used from the bottom of the cylinder or any know of a trick to get piston back in the cylinder with the new rings on it. the only compressors ive seen are the tradional from the top. Any help would be great. thanks

You don't use a ring compressor , the cylinder is tapered and you slowly work the rings in keeping the piston/cylinder square .. A small flat blade screwdriver helps ..
