Control rods. Riveted U.C.

[Lynn Eades]

I'm not that sophisticated, I arrived at medium tensile, because it aint mild and you have to be able to cut a thread into it. Are there any metalurgists on the forum that can do a rockwell test?

I only put in the time and effort because I thought it might help some bloke on the other side of the globe wot talks funny .
I will get to the short rods (they are the only ones left) Are you in a hurry?
I'd like to hear from someone with an original engine tie back rod. The thread on mine seems very long. Is it normal?
