Chrome or tunsten carbide plate four steel piston rods

Grind and bring them back up to spec by coating. If you can't grind, just coat after I get them ground down.

I have four pistons (size 10-18" D.)with steel piston rods attached to them. The rods are worn egg shaped and tapered.. Only a few thousands though. I need to have them ground down and plated WITH the pistons remaining on the rods. The total length of the piston/rods are about 4 feet. The rods are all 2.50" in Dia.
