custom tensioners

[mustangdave]

I'd like to set up some tensioning rods like the March pulley system. Does anyone know where to find some rods and ends like those that are anodized?

What about hardware store solutions? I can fake an anodized paint job. I just don't want to pay $40 for one piece from March.

Keep in mind that one end needs to be right hand thread and the other left hand thread in order to be adjustable, I'm not sure you can get something like that at the hardware store...

Do you have a TSC (Tractor Supply Company) in your area. They have setups like that for 3 point implements. I know they have larger ones cause I have a couple but they should have smaller one too or can order them. Mine are about 24 inches and about 1.250 diameter and I paid $24.00

Yeah, we've got one. I'll check them out. Thx!
