Rod ends fitted to my quickrack using the world's biggest 32mm spanner:

And tapped down over the flat part to stop them unscrewing (also used some threadlock as I'm paranoid). The eagle eyed among you will notice I forgot the plastic piece that fits before this, so I had to take both off and redo them :cry:

Next issue, my new gators are utter crap. They screw up when the rod is fully 'in':

And crease inwards when they're fully 'out'.
