I have a question. Does anyone know a place to acquire hardened steel pin stock. I want some really tough 3.10mm pin stock for making up my own suspenssion arm pins. Even some drill bit blanks would work if I could find some. We all know how weak the pins are now. They bend much too easly and can be a Beotch to remove. I want something that will not bend, and get jammed in the arms or the bulkheads. Any ideas???

I also want to get my hands on some metric 6mm threaded steel rod, and some 6mm threaded female stock. I plan to use them for extending my arm lengths 12mm each.
