I have some extra clevises and you may be able to get some rod of the right dia. from your work and thread the ends. You can see how long mine are, and possible make some.

I am East of Tacoma.
Rock, Sounds great.. By the time I am done with this car it might be 1/2 yours.

Stopping over at 2 other guys houses tonight for exhaust a look for 2 more tires and 1 brake rod. He says he only had the rod not the other stuff, I will take inventory of what I need there today. I will also hold off putting in this switch till you see it.

Are the emergency brake rods shorter or longer than the other brake rods? I know a guy who had a bunch of Model A brake rods when I was at his place a couple of years ago. I wouldn't know how to tell the rods apart.

They are the short ones. Looked like just 5/16" rod with fine thread on one end for the clevis and it had a ring on the opposite side.
