Brake pedal push rod modification question.

So I looked through almost all of the brake conversion threads but I still need input.

I converted my 65 c10 to power brake disc/drum using capt fabs bracket and a booster & maser from a 71c10. everything lines up nicely...

My question is, how are people modifying the push rod that connects the brake pedal to the push rod on the booster? The 71 booster rod has a nice 3/8"eye on it, I made a coupler and welded it to the original one from the 65. It works fine, however there is flex in the rod since it's just a single bolt, creating a pivot point.

What have you done? How much flex movement in the rod is ok?
