Buster this is the way I that I do it.

Cut two (2) pieces off a shop rag. Put the rod and piston between your legs and hold it. Put one piece of rag on one corner of the ring and get the other piece on the other ring end. Pull them apart as much as needed to slide over the piston,continue doing it to all of the rings.
With this method you wont scratch the piston with the end of the rings. You will be surprised how easy this is.

I hope this method works for you.
