Good deal you followed that advice!

The torque rod is in a tube right?

If I were you, I would think awhile before using the CA. It can work but you better be very careful to insure it doesn't migrate to where the rod comes out of the tube. (How do I <grin> know this?) Epoxy is a really good glue to use sometimes instead of CA. It doesn't wick off places you don't want it to go.

But there is another thing to look at. If the wood right over/under the torque rod wasn't strong enough, then the wood to either side might not be strong enough to hold the blobs of CA for very long. You might just wind up with a torque rod with blobs of glue working up and down. Look at the whole area the rod is in, at the wood and try to figure out if you think the wood surrounding the rod needs to be strengthened. No value to doing the job and needing to do it again later.

And now........ let me advise against my first advice..... chuckle..... yeah, you might actually want to use some CA to strengthen the wood thats not directly in contact with the rod/tube. But be very careful where it can wick. And thin CA works best here, but of course it's the "wickingest" CA there is.

The best advice isn't always the simplest advice....
