Stop in for a cup of coffee

Would making shifter rods (linkage) for an OD833 be as straight forward as it seems? Or am i really overlooking something?

they say OD rods are different than regular 4 speed rods but I seriously have used the regular 4 speed rods before on an OD. There is plenty of adjustment on the end swivels and all it really is, is one goes upside down. the reverse and one of the other ones is same dang thing as a regular 4 speed.
