Hi.

I’m looking for one pedal rod for my 1979 Emmons push pull. Been looking for a while, but haven’t had any luck. The length from top of rod to bottom of threads is 24 3/4”. I believe the width is 4.2mm.

Thanks!

Thanks, Paul.

I might try him. I have a non Emmons made rod on now that works okay, but it gives the action a “spongy” feel. Can’t figure out why, maybe the rod is hair thinner, or the cut in the hook is slightly off? Thought I’d try my luck and search for an original.

I figured a picture of the pedal rod hook would be helpful…

I have one, but the lower part where the hook is is different. What does the upper part look like. I'll take a picture of mine later, and put it on for you to see.

I'm not sure how many I have, but will, dig them out and put pictures on here, If either of you can use them, there cheap. I got these about 6 months ago, from and individual on the forum. He had 4-5 of them, and I bought them all. I'll get back to you both in a few days.
