Default 4-40 rods at servos??

Soldering is NOT one of my best attributes. I have received all kinds of info on soldering in a different thread, and MAYBE???, I will try again. (I had a clevis come off the throttle arm rod due to a bad solder joint and had to fly almost full throttle till it ran out of fuel!!). My question here is: What do you guys use for the keeper at the servo arm on 4-40 rod?? I have always used 2-56 rods and bent it 90 degrees, and used those nylon keepers. I am building a 4* 120 this winter and will be using 4-40 rod for the first time. I prefer NOT to solder anything... unless I have to. Does anyone use a die and cut treads on the servo end
too? Thanks .... lownslo
