Stop in for a cup of coffee

I think you could shorten the arm and have it done in a day...

Where trying to find a shorter ball crank rod may take a while to find and then get shipped.... (If there is one that may work...)
Stuck it in vise and straightened it. It had a z bend. Now i think the ball stud is too small. I has a plan. Later, its outside, got other stuff to move forward on.
