Default b4 ft pistons

ive nearly finished building my new b4 ft. In the instructions it tells you to use the number 2 pistons for the front and then number 1 pistons for the rear. It clearly shows you should have four number 2's and two number 1's included in the kit on one white sprue. Ive only got a smaller white sprue in my kit which has four number 1 pistons on it, and thats it.
Is this only what is icluded nowadays or have i been unlucky and got shafted?

My recently bought kit was the same... I've ordered the full set of pistons. Part number #6465, not expensive at all.

it was cragg on the front. Theres no mention in the manual of all the other pistons you listed. Should they be in the box? (i mean for free)

they never list the other pistons so dont worry but yes you should have 1 2 and 3 for free on the same white plastic tree in the kit

they also dont list the other anti squat shims- but you should have a 1 and a 2 of them.

most people run number 1 rear silver spring 30w oil and number 2 front blue spring 30w oil
