Needing 159 engine rod

I might be needing 1 or 2 rods for a 159 gas engine. 530 tractor. Rebuilding the engine and two of the rods are questionable. I was hoping someone might have a couple used rods. Dick
 
What do you mean by questionable? Any time it's that apart, rods should be fluxed, aligned and resized. Taking a rod from another engine would require a rebalance also......
 
This engine was taken apart before I got it, one of the rod journals is spread out. The bolts are off over 1/8 of an inch. We got it back to where the bolts will fit the cap ? I am taking the rods to a machine shop to have them checked and straightened if possible. I now need to find out the rod journal size with out the bearings installed so as to check journals. Nothing I have gives me the size. Only thing I can find is the crankshaft rod journal.. Dick
