Basicaly bought unibal rod ends(for mk2 rack) for my mk1 rack,but they are M14, still learning the hard way

just need to find someone that will do it, i found most of the time when your trying to get something made and you explain what you want done, you end up getting a weird look and they say, nah you dont wanna do that your better off doing this, and that pisses me off, when i was getting my props done(from a guy i used to deliver to)it took me and am not joking,about an hour and had to explain about 10 times and even drew a picture for him to understand what i was going on about!!

I know exact what u saying the good thing is that i have a good old school fabricator that he knows what he is doing,if they
were available of the self,would have been nice

see if you can get the rod ends rethreaded to suit the rack, i think if you make the extention too long you might not be able to get the wheels straight!
