Drag Link
Here is the drag link all done and in. I forgot to say that I made this the same way as I made the radius rods, which is the same way J. Robinson made the ones for his T Modified.
Not to say I stole his ideas! 
I got two 1/2" fine thread rod couplings, put them on a grinder and made them (more of less) round for all but 3/8" of an inch, this was left octagonal as bought. I then took a piece of 1/2" pipe the correct length, crossdrilled the ends, then inserted the coupling nuts, rounded end in, natch, and welded through the holes. I say plug welded, Tech Inspector says Rosette Weld. 
haaahaaa. Yeah, I KNEW that Inspector-------
heehee.
Too old to work, Too poor to quit.
