Does anyone know of longer pedal rod adjusters? My adjustment is on the bottom threads and need about another 1/4".

they have a spring loaded cover that slips over the ball. I was hoping not to look add a female thread section and extension stud. I only need about a 1/4". Just trying to add more threads to the adjustment I have.
Thought
a clever machinst may have made them longer. Would be a easy way to extend but buying long rods is probably less money than the work involved.

Need a littler longer. At the bottom of adjustment. Talking a few threads. My thought was a longer female threaded cyclinder on the bottom rod clip would be another way to extend the rod length. Thought someone in the forum may have produced the idea.

I have raised the pedal bar slightly thus lowering the pedal.
