Looks like you are using bolts instead of clevis
pins to attach the rods to the eccentric fitting.
The threads on the bolts will chew up the fitting
and/or rods over time. Go to Home Depot and get
the correct size clevis pins.<br clear="none">

I don't see any u-bolt threads exiting the nuts on

Based on the forces exerted on the spring/rear end
