- How to build a high quality, low friction rod end clutch linkage at home. This is a big step up from using the readily available kits that are out there too (beware of some of those!). The differences between off-shore rod ends and high quality, Made-In-The-USA rod ends is explained too. It's not that difficult to build and its the right fix for common "ovalled" holes in z-bars and clutch pedals. Check it out!

Holy smokes why didn't I think of this! A brilliant solution! I'll bet you can use these rod-ends on so many other things like throttle linkages etc. I'm literally knee-deep in 1968 442 parts in the garage, hot and heavy with a resto project. I just got a replacement z-bar kit and I'm absolutely going to fab my own clutch rod and fork rod with your idea here. The problem I'd hit with your swedge tube is that the Old's pushrod is bent 6 ways till Sunday to pass through the firewall to the z-bar and I'm not inclined to cut a wider hole to facilitate the straight throw. I happen to have the old pushrod still so I'll just zing off the OEM ends and weld these in place. ***UPDATE: it looks like Aurora makes female rod-ends with left/right threads now which makes this even easier.
I'm happy my video helped and inspired you!
Thank you for adressing this topic.
Great idea, I need to change my 66 Corvette to this style setup, thanks for the information.
Thanks for the comps. Rod end linkage systems work great!
Great video, thanks for sharing this information, I may go this route in the future 👍
Thanks man...
My linkage came loose yesterday on my 85 CJ7, I am going to fix it today in this configuration.
Thanks for watching!
Great explanation for this upgrade, thanks for taking the time to record and share this video.
Glad it was helpful!

@Trenton Lyle Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Trenton Lyle It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass :D
my adjuster with the ball end didn’t have a jam nut witch allowed it to fall off while i was driving. it was a long drive home. thanks for the info
Outstanding video, on 65-66 Mustangs the pedal to Z-bar rod has a bend. Do you know of a way to compensate for this bend in the bar?
Professional tutorial. Thx
You're welcome!
My A833 is getting this as soon as I have to.
Subscribed! Great video
Thanks for the sub!
Hi do you have any advice on a zbar with headers for chevelles or and alder model chevy?
How can I get one for a 64 Impala SS, beautiful work and materials
Cool, nothing sucks more then an internal hydraulic slave cylinder popping.
I need some for a 63 Impala
You da Man! 👍
Thanks!😀
Had the linkage go out on my semi interested in fabricating my own linkage assembly want to use what I see here just wondering about articulation of the heim joints and wondering about vibration as the joints I had used rubber wonder if some poly rod ends might be better .
A rod-end linkage will be noisier, but I don't think in your case it will matter much. If you check out the video, I use Teflon lined aircraft jobs, but you might want to consider the less costly jobs Aurora Bearing sells with zerk fittings so that you can grease them. FYI, the amount of articulation depends upon the rod end. You can get high misalignment rod ends that could work for you too...Interesting application! Thanks for asking.
@@lonewolfhotrods thank you for the reply went ahead and got the truck fixed with the original equipment today solid rubber end links will probably out last me .the ones on the truck were completely gone.truck has over one million miles on it was originally an automatic thinking they grabbed the clutch rod out of the junk heap .still thinking about using the materials shown thinking they would be lifers 😉.thanks for the great content and again appreciate the reply .👍
@@jhnsls978 Glad you got it fixed!
@@lonewolfhotrods long wait 3 days how I spent labor day weekend 😞
@@jhnsls978 Wow...you need a nap...L-O-L
