Looking through our stash of rods found these. The end caps have not been cut ? The pins are bushed already but they haven't cut the caps. Anyone seen rods like this?

maybe you need stronger glasses ..those rod ends come apart , i dont even have my readers on and i can see the parting line in the pic

not only that they are stamped for cylinder.. as in they were used already.. so they came apart
loosen the cap bolts and use a rod spreader to open them up , they are doweled at the split to keep them in perfect alignment

Yes glasses need attention. Not seen rods torqued to spec not on a crank. Thanks
