Ok thanks!! The po was a real piece of work!! Its not bad,it just there's a
spot weld welding the nut in place on the threads?? Delicate work with a
grinder/cut off wheel/flap disc and my thread file I should be able to get
it. If it gets too boogered up Ill try to talk you out of those!!

i happen to have my old '82 westy's (was diesel like yours) radius rod on
the bench. The end of the rod is not smooth, it is like a rough casting,
roughly trimmed. No sign of spot weld.
