I've had about 25 brake rods too straighten. I have 2 double eyelet rods
without the brake rod return spring "upset or knob" on them. They are
40 1/8" long X 5/16". Question,.. are these Truck, going too the back?
Thanks, Dudley

Dudley,

Sounds like these rods are for the early 28's that were designed for the non-adjustable brake rods ? the cross shafts had a clevis top and bottom, the front brake cross shafts also had a clevis on the actuating arm.

I have the non-adjustable type on my car...but these are about 12" shorter? Ron, sorry
about the confusion, should have put that in the original post.
