RE: Push rod attachment???
1. If the end of the rod is threaded, simply screw on a Dubro nylon clevis.
2. In not threaded, and presuming you have enough length, put a "z bend" in the rod with a Dubro Z-bend tool. or pliers if you are careful
3. but a tap ( 4-40 ??), and cut threads into the end of the rod so that you can do step #1
