forged rods with surface rust? PIC HEAVY
forged rods with surface rust? PIC HEAVY i picked up a set of used forged lingenfelter rods about 3 years ago and never used them just unpacked them and checked them out and packed them back up and set them in the shop
well i went another way and have no use for the rods and i was going to sell them but after looking at them i am not sure if its a good idea for them to be used
5 out of the 8 look nice but the other three have a good bit of surface rust
is there anything i can do?? i certainly do not want to sell someone something that will be defective but i do not want them to just go to waste
are they even worth anything in this condition?

Keep these pics, clean them up with a light wire wheel and rub them down with oil. Put a price on them and state just what you did and both parties should be happy....I'd clean them up end run them in s motor as long as there isn't pitting in the wrist pin hole, or the big end hole.
