Outcast Turnbuckle upgrade?

Second update, I received the turnbuckles in the mail today. They are definitely 5mm. Too big for the stock rod ends. I have email them again in hopes of getting something for free since their website was clearly mislabeled.

I can confirm that I just replaced all 6 of my 4s links with this kit of TLR titanium links. You will need new ends, as the threads are smaller, but they do thread into fresh stock ends firmly. A couple sets left at this link for a very good price on Titanium

a few mm in length is no big deal due to the adjustability, the nature of them, threaded on both ends. The thickness change of 1mm is kind of a big deal. It's hard to fit a 4mm thread in a 3mm rod. It can stretch and be done, but not ideal. I don't know about a 5mm rod in a 4mm plastic piece. Mathmatecially the ratio is closer than 4mm / 3mm.

Doubt it is hard if you drill it slight bigger I’d go with metric bits
I believe you can drill the hole LIL bigger on those rod ends?
