HA! I *just* did that with a spare piece of exhaust pipe I had laying
around! Picture:

I had the exact same idea. :-)

Hi travis,
You better fix them e-brake cables... when you flex down your brakes will
lock-up! For the clutch rod, I cut the OEM one in the middle and welded in
an appropriate bolt (with head cut off) to extend it. I have heard of
others that used a piece threaded stock for the extension. My bell-crank
was done similar to yours. Give your shifters plenty of clearance so when
you flex and twist it won't get knocked out of gear.
