Default How I got around that little ring on the shaft....

I actually bought some shock link rods from Vintage Power Wagon knowing they were too short.

I used the upper protion of the original link from my cab 11 and cut/welded/grafted the bottom threaded portion of the new link rod....it gave me the ring and rubber bushings, cupped washers, new thread section and the whole thing looks like new. Also did another set just using long grade 8 bolts but needed to find the necessary fine thread and tack welded the cupped washer where the ring would have been.

Cheers
