On the 2-56 rods:
I cut the pin side of the clevis off, then I drill out the hole side to hold a 2/56 screw. I drill a hole through the fin, bend the clevis about 30 degrees, put it on with a screw temporarily. Then I decide where I want to have it attach on the stab and do the same thing there. Then I fit one rod at a time, screwing in the rod and then cutting and threading the other end to the right length. Yes, it does take a while, and its best to use a drop of CA down the clevis to hold the rod from vibrating.

The other alternative is to mount thin aluminum fingers - with holes drilled in both ends, then have clevis' on both ends and fit as above. I've never had interference this way.
