M16 to M14 Adaptor stud?Ritchie

I'm looking for an adaptor stud from M14 to M16, male both ends. Its for (hopefully) a PS conversion on my brat and I need these to attached the original track rods to the PS rack. I could make something myself but I don't have access to a lathe, and as it's steering I'd rather either get them made properly or buy a stud and cut it down to length if required. I realise it's unlikely I'll get this off the shelf, it's just the easiest option!
Any ideas?
Cheers.

Atmo V8 Power . No slicks , No gas + No bits missing . Doing it in style.

I've done extensive googling and i cannot find anything . Plenty of thread adaptors for hydraulics and pneumatics but I'm kind of guessing it would be less than ideal having a hole up the middle !
Looks like something high tensile will have to be turned down and threaded !

Is it feasible to drill the 14 hole out to 16 and re-tap the thread to suit?

Thanks for looking chaps. I've mailed an engineering company who have done this in the past, I'll see what they come up with. I was debating if high tensile would be necessary, the track rod ends will just be cast, however they would have more thread engagment. I could always just cut and weld the track rods but that's a but rough and I don't really want to drill and tap out the M14 side as that's more faff. I'm not getting the Johnny Bravo reference??  |

I see now!
It’s only a stud I need. Not a custom made billet rack!

If you need some help ping me over a drawing/ fag packet sketch. I would make them hi tensile. Probably have suitable bar ends kicking around from a production job. 😊
