How do I install a new piston with 21 loose needle bearings around the wrist pin in the little end of the connecting rod? I have tried to install the wrist pin but the needle bearings keep falling out.

A light weight grease can be useful to keep the needle bearings in place while completing the assembly. It will provide lubrication and eventually be worn or be washed away by the normal lubrication system.
