Problem with Brake Push rod on 67 Master

[Isaiah92260]

I followed a couple splitting the lines threads about the master cylinder conversion form a 67' on to my 63.... Long story short I did everything proper, but I still a 1 1/8" of play on my brake pedal push rode. I adjusted it as far as I could until it's in its last couple threads. I don't know how to weld or don't know anyone to take it to.... Is there any other alternatives I can do? Is there any other push rods I could buy from my local parts store like autozone that would fit onto my truck. Any honest suggestions and advice would be appreciated.... Thank you

I'm sorry about my lack of knowledge, after reading the link you sent... What does the coupler look like and where do I get it?

I would take the rod to a good hardware or NAPA store and say " This needs to be an inch longer"...

I found this answer somewhere on these forums.

I got a long coupling nut, then I got a bolt with the same threads and cut the head off to have a threaded rod. This added just enough. I kept the threaded rod long enough so that everything tightened together. Added some thread lock on it and done.
