Dennis,
Wayne has mentioned his fix in the past. It should be archived. He
suggests using brake line to fashion a tubular spacer on either side of the
rod end ball. The spacer length is long enough to allow rotation for stop
to stop (fore & aft) plus a smidgen for clearance.The spacer wall thickness
has to be enough to withstand bolt compression and turning force but not so
thick as become an interference.

As another option -which I am using - ACS has a part that allows rotation
internally and is threaded in each end for the rod ends. No ACS catalog
here at home and it is a little obscure to find but solves the threaded
rotation.
