Probe Lightweight I beams and rotating assembly componenets

What is the deal with the Probe rod that says RPM 5315 in the middle of the rod that Probe sells? On RPM's site it says this rod is a Counterfit rod? I have a set of these. Thanks

they are correct . they are counterfit copy of American company's rods . Crower I beam rod for one

Probe sells them, are they any good? I thought somone said they got there stuff from RPM? I am a little confused?

Since it is currently a challenge to get part from anyone,lately we will sometimes use a Sun rod, which is the factory that made them for RPM from another supplier.

Any Chinese supplier that says a rod is "counterfeit" is just being ridiculous. They're all from the same couple of factories. Some of them are 5140 instead of 4340, but you just ignore those.

Ok, cool.
