Yes. It took a little fiddling to attach but seems a good fix.

Ralph,

Is this the part you have from ACS?

-> 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.
