Hydroboost pushrod question
Hey y'all I just got around to doing my hydroboost swap into my 89 bird. I got a HB unit from a 92 Safari van for a decent price and I installed it to see if it worked but the obvious pushrod length/hole diameter is the final piece I need to address. I bought an adjuster sleeve and die, and one day after work this week I'll yank the thing back out and put the original vac booster pushrod onto the HB one. But for it to be a 'true adjuster sleeve' I will need to do left hand threads on the original third gen part of the pushrod, and right hand threads on the HB pushrod correct? If I do need to do that, where can I buy a left hand thread tap? I appreciate any feedback for any of my questions. Thanks in advance, Jeremy

Actually I just realized a mistake. Correct me if I'm wrong but since the adjustment sleeve is all right hand threads then I wouldn't be able to use left hand threads on the pushrod correct?
