Default Re: Engine Steady Rods

1st ford:

To install anti chatter rods on the 8BA in my 40 Ford I welded ears with bolt holes onto the steel bell housing. Then, made rods top fit. Be sure to make sure that your clutch and brake pedal don't interfere with the steady rods after installing. Use double nuts and flat washers, not lock washers. "Tack weld" the ears for a trial fit. The ears are 1 inch thick square steel. You can use the OEM steady rods if you modify them.
