Default RE: Push rods connectors?

I even use EZs on bigger planes, not often but sometimes I get into A set up bind and they bail me out. One of the tricks with them is to use the metal keeper with the rubber one right behid it so they don't come loose and start wobbling around on you. I don't care for the Z bends but they are fool proof and never come undone. Almost all of my controls are rods and clevises with one being A solder clevis or I use rigging couplers and make up my own pull/pull system. I almost always use an EZ on one end of my throttle, sometimes both. What ever works but the EZs do loosen up and wobble around. Too bad I haven't been able to find the screw on type that come with some ARFs or I would use them more often.
