New Piston Rods

Sunday, January 21, 2024

After removing the pistons from the old rods, we had to fabricate new ones. Using the old ones as patterns Robert turned the new rods. They were then sent out for polishing and plating. Once they were back to the shop, we wedged them back into the pistons.
