Re: "Rice Rocket'

The picture of the Edelbrock tie rod adjuster sleeve installed in the panhard bar is a great idea.
One catch.
Those are threaded with RH threads on one side, and LH threads on the other side.
Do you have a way to turn the shaft size down or thread the rod?
I would say those pieces were threaded on a lathe.
You could always weld the LH thread side, and just a thread die the RH thread side,... but you still have to turn them down to the correct diameter.
(5/8" or 11/16" depending on which sleeve you buy)

Also,... if you plan on installing drop spindles,... I would wait on cutting your springs.
