I will need to thread only one end of the rod. I had a very long rod that has the spring loaded ends that slip onto a ball on the carb and accelerator pedal. I cut that in two and I am threading each end and joining them with a tube coupling and lock nuts. Once it is adjusted to the desired length, and tightened, it will need no further adjustment, hence, no need for a turnbuckle set up. Besides, I do not have a left hand die. Thanks
