Neveragain55 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Hi Gang…. When I ripped my 1982 L28ET apart I had to trash the pistons, rings and the rods because the pistons were seized in the block and I had to literally whack them out with a sledgehammer. I obviously damaged everything beyond recognition (except the block) so I have to replace all those components with new parts. I’ve found all the parts I need from several aftermarket sellers except for the rods. I’ve found several sites that sell engine rebuild kits and yes, I’ve scoured the pages in here and other forums but I can’t seem to find anybody that sells just the rods. Two questions that I’m hoping you’ll all indulge me with: where can I purchase new rods for my rebuild, and are the L28ET rods any different than a N/A L28? Side note: not interested in used rods if I can help it, would rather buy new. Thanks in advance……. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
