adamzan Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 You can rebuild them with weld. Make sure to take those old sleeves off first though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terranovation Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I'm concerned that you are using flamey stuff around wood logs lol. Anyway, good job looks like it will survive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmark1981 Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Hahaha, yeah after a dozen Budweiser I'm none the wiser but at least I can salvage the rod... I'm going to get some anti seize inside that sleeve too to ensure I can remove it again... Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RF600 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Why not buy new ones from the dealer? There not that much. Edited October 18, 2015 by RF600 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 For starters they are about 70 dollars each up here. I did end up buying new but only because I snapped one and spent like 200 dollars at nissan getting all the parts...

PathyAndTheJets Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I see them occasionally on eBay for about 50 bucks. I've always wondered about how to improve the design of the rod to reduce wear. But I think most of the problem stems from neglect. Haven't figured out a better way to do it though.

maddmark1981 Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 Yeah it seems like you can't go by looking at the bushing itself cause the damage starts in the sleve Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
