Hi Alex

Have you considered cutting the rusted part of your link rods and welding a grade 8 fine thread bolt of suitable lenght?

I sharpened the old rod and the bolt to a pencil shape...... used a section of 1 inch angle to insure line up of both rods.... just set the rods in the vee .

If you cut out a small window in a 12 inch angle iron section the rods will line up and the window will give you access to weld..... easy with a mig...... grind off any excess after and you done.

cheers
