Hello can anyone give me a resource to 6mm bronze rod connector bushings with center black set screws that fit in the bell crank holes? would love to order them, I think they are 6mm or 15/64" Steve Black.

Look at these, I ordered some, but you have to drill for the rods..BF

I got myself one of those little Chinese lathes second hand a while back, so I just make my own out of round brass bar. We don't have McMaster-Carr in the UK anyway...

I am having issues with my bell cranks not having enough threads to attach them to the cross shafts, if I tightened them down too much they strip out, and they need to be tight, I got my rod connector bushings to work quite well, but the bell crank just won'the tightened down, I have another idea I will try, but could use any ideas you guys have.
