Push-pull tubes use on control systems.

Well, DUH! Those are question extractors from the Flux Capacitor.
Actually, I think the control push-pull tube answer might be right.

I think so too, but from what?

For some reason I have this weird thought of a Sikorsky H-34.

That was the first thing that popped into my head as well. Looks similar to some of the control linkages on the AH-1 at CWAM.

No, not the flux capacitors. From the gonkulators, geez.

It doesn't work. They are just random parts bolted together to make the "time machine" look busy

It appears that they have part numbers on them. Anyone have clearer pix? See, there are some limits to shooting digitally-

They are swaged aluminum pushrod tubes.
Awful short though.

They appear to me to be some sort of green tubes...

Nose gear on a Neptune? Been a while since I was around one, so that's just a wild guess.

DAMMIT
Trying to answer 1 question, and how we have another!

So an AH-1 with the Flux Capacitor installed would turn into a time machine?
