    C2 strut rod dimensions

    I'm trying to determine if my strut rods are correct. I searched the forum and found some info, but not dimensions.

    According to LIC website, correct C2 strut rods have the smaller ends with OD of 1.592" and ID of 1.228", or I believe the ID is actually 1 1/4".

    Mine measure a little more, OD of 1.68". I don't know if the later ones are slightly larger than correct ones, or a lot larger.

    Can someone give the dimensions of the later larger strut rods?

    Thanks,

    Don

    Donald:

    I don't have this info handy, but I know that Joe Lucia posted it before, so it should be in the archives. I purchased the LICS strut rods for my 1967 a few years back, and they were identical to my originals. No other vendors had this correct size and configuration at that time.

    I initially purchased from Bair's, but gave them away to a friend and bought the LICS pieces.

        I did a quick "advanced search" using "replacement strut rods" and came up with a fairly long list of threads. Here is one of them by Joe:

          That tells me what I need to know. I need to replace mine.

          Thanks,
