Looking for a pedal rod extension

Installing the MC and booster and the one in the old booster is not the same for current booster. It has male threads coming out and I need a female threaded clevis that is about 4" long.

I've found a few but they are all twice as long as I need or just the clevis which is too short. Any thoughts on where I can find something? Needs to be just a bit longer than this one.

Thanks.

Re: Looking for a pedal rod extension

Problem is, it's female threaded and I don't know if the threads extend all the way up. I think I found one that I can get in 4" length that should work. Thanks.

Re: Looking for a pedal rod extension

With a little bit time and patience I made an extension out of a piece hex shaft solid stock drilled each end and tapped it.made it like a longer than normal adjuster. I went with a dual diaphragm 7" or 8" booster. And was about 3" short
