Needing to trade or buy steel legs 1" shorter than normal. I have included a picture of the legs I have and their size. They are 24 1/4", I need 22 1/4". They are off an Emmons steel, but they are the same thread as most others, Zum, Mullen, etc. The legs I have are 1" longer then the normal. If I have to buy a set then these legs will be for sale.

I'll thread them farther and cut off excess. Easy to fix that!!

It's not a big deal to shorten the legs you have.
Just knock out the threaded plug on the end, shorten them two inches and pound the plug back it. Very Happy

Yes I know all that, but sometimes it cracks the chrome , then it will start peeling.

Erv, Ron, he needs shorter legs, I need longer legs. A trade is good for both of us. Smile
