65 valiant pedal linkage clip

Thanks, small problem is that heim joint is too short on the female side, the factory socket piece is 2 3/8" from bottom to center of socket, this new peice which i got from mcmaster carr ( i did a lot of searching for anything longer, is 1 5/16". So right now the pedal is about an inch from the floor, and all the throttle stopping is at the carb. What i want to do is get one of those coupler nuts then a stud to basicly lengthen the pedal rod. Ace hardware did not have it, maybe another mcmaster carr deal
