Strut Rod Safety Pins
« on: December 07, 2005 - 01:22:25 PM »
My car had just standard cotter pins in place of these, does anyone sell the originals? I guess if they don't I can throw a couple more cotter pins on.

I think mine either came from R/T specialties or Roger Gibson but, I don't remember for sure as it has been a few years back that I bought them.

Jakehog, are you using your original strut rods or going with the beefier ones from Mopar Performance/Mancini Racing?  I bought some new ones through them, but I cannot remember if they come with the new roll pins or not.
