There are two sets of Throttle Linkages pulling open the carburetor's (one
per carb).
One of these broke off a socket end so I lost one carburetor while at full
song in 3 gear going up the last 2 curves on HWY154 before my exit. 7000RPM
~ 100mph = Big Smile. I coasted off at West Camino Cielo and limped home the
last mile onto our private driveway and walked the last 600 yards, also a
Big Smile. (Like surviving an emergency parachute drop I suppose)

As I recall these parts are made of un-obtainium, but if you know where I
can get just 1/2 of 1 set (Just 1 rod end) I would be very grateful. These
are made with 2 sets of threaded rod-ends and a union w/two jamb nuts.

I have emailed Wolf racing already and awaiting a response, but I'm only
hopeful there.

The remainder broken piece can be seen here:

The socket end is still on the carb.

Thank you,
