where to get threaded wastegate rod kits?

[Inneedofabuick]

Who sells the kits to thread the wastegate rod on a stock wastegate? Anyone know of some links?

At lowes or Home depot (or any hardware store) you can buy a 1/4-20 die and 1/4-20 threaded coupler for less than $6.

so the 1/4in die is what makes the threads or do you have to nnachine them into the rod?

a die is a tool that cuts a male thread...

ahhh, sry iam a little slow........

I've never done this before (I use OEM adjustable actuators), but it seems to me you need to take a little length out of the rod to account for the length of the coupler. Maybe somebody who's done this can chime in...
