4-bbl kick-down rod

Either of these would work if Woody's existing 2bbl rod has a threaded end on it (similar to the one in the photo in his original post above). Not all do. If his 2bbl rod doesn't have a threaded end, it will require metal work to make threads on his existing rod to use those adaptor pieces. I looked at those adapters as well but the need to buy/borrow a tap and die kit to put threads on mine non threaded 2bbl rod had me looking for a rod with threads on it already.

My 2bbl rod does not have a threaded end, so I guess for now I'll keep looking for a (4bbl or 2bbl) one that does. I'm in uncharted territory here, so I'm following H22A's thread as close as I can. Chris thanks for the inspiration and thanks to all of you who answered. May taxes didn't go so well today, so this project might be set back a few months.
