Can anyone identify these brake rods?
 

Alright picture heavy but i have no idea what these are off of. They dont match any of my 29 AA's or standard model A car rods...

Picture shows the rods and labeled them A B and C. C is for 2 rods as they are identical.

Rod A's upset is shown

Rod B's upset is shown

Rod A's total length, notice both ends have an eye - no threads for adjusting.

Rod B's length - pretty close to standard model A rod but the upset is way off.

Rod c's total length, rod C has NO upset anywhere along it and are longer than the emergency brake rods on my 29 AA.

My guess on some of these is either 30/31 AA rods or long wheelbase (157") rods of some sort. or possibly not even ford but appear to be made in the same fashion as fords. Ive accumulated alot of leftovers and oddball brake rods over the years. Any help is appreciated.

OAL: 52"
features: single eye on each end, non adjustable.

Rod B:
Eye to upset: 28 5/8"
OAL: 62"
features: single eye on one end, threads on other.

Rods c:
NO upset
OAL:~77 3/4"

I thought the no adjustable ones were for 28-early 29?

The only Model A's with the non-adjustable service brake rods were during the middle part of 1928. My 9-27-28 has them.

As does an April 1928 Business Coupe.
