How long is your push rod I'll have a look at work they are scrapping another truck but I'm not sure what braking system is on it . The rods have opposite threads so you can adjust them without taking them off

I'll have a look some don't have them on but if I can find a long one you can cut it down drill and tap leaving the left hand thread side on it will adjust without taking it off .im sure one of the out side guys gave me one but I ain't seen it for a bit I'll look under my bench.
