The first compression ring is a solid metal ring. The second is a scraper
type and might come with an expander ring (Saab OEM kits don't have
expander rings). The third ring is a multi-piece oil scraper, which has
two thin rails with a spacer between them, as well as an optional expander.
Have some oil ready to lubricate the rings before installation.
