Rod identification
Rod identification I pulled these pistons and rods out of an LQ4 that came from a wrecked '05 Silverado 2500. Can anyone definitively ID them as either pressed or floating? From the research I have done, they visually appear to be the pressed pin rods but I thought that all '05+ motors had floating pin rods? Thanks!

That was the idea that I had for doing it but the more I think about it, the less likely it seems I will be able to do it with the armor press. I have maybe 5 inches of space in the press so I doubt I could get that worked out unless I maybe use stacked shallow sockets one at a time to press the pin out. I just hate to get a shop press for something like this. Although a shop press would probably help with the rear end rebuild I want to do sometime soon. And I think HFT has them on sale right now.
Looks like HFT has the 20 ton on sale for 170 and I can get another 20% off that so if they have one in stock I might just go for that. I thought about the 12 but I don't know if that one would be sufficient for everything suspension and rear end related.
