Forged con rods

[Rice]

Just seen these on eBay, might be a cheap set of rods for someone ?

Nooooooo

I have mailed him many times and he has outwardly said that he will not sell them for less than £300. They cost him £500 apparently, so we know he is fibbing somewhere along the line.

ARP don't make rods, they are an unknown brand with arp bolts.

He doesn't know what rifle drilled rods are, but these aren't.

Personally I see an eBay case waiting to happen.

Screw you Jardo, that was going to be my good deed for the day .

Thanks for the heads up.....but what Jardo has said above is interesting so thanks for sharing that. I'll go and unwatch that item

For future reference though OP, there is a section you can post stuff you find that might interest other 8L owners ;-)

I was thinking "Thankyou for the heads up mate :icon_thumright:" would be apt in this case.

P.s. I know you're joking fella.

Have a look at these if you're not fussed about rifle drilled.

Non RD will last. RD preferable but its better having forged rods than not having them.
