|All thread coupling: In the first pic below, the top 2 fasteners were removed from each side and discarded; (L) 3/8" x 18 pinch bolt and (R) turn signal stud. \\ The 2-1/4" threaded rod and coupling nut replaces the pinch bolt and provides for more threads in the tree. 3/8" rods can be cut from all-thread or a 5" carriage bolt. \\ The coupling nuts are 1-3/4" long or can be cut shorter (these were cut to 7/8"). The signal stud is replaced with a 5/16" x 24 bolt with the head ground down just \\ enough to fit inside the coupling nut snugly. It is then cut so there is about 1/2" of threads to screw into the turn signal housing with a jam nut threaded on it. \\ The carriage end of the 5/16" bolt is then inserted into the coupling that has been side drilled and tapped for a #10x32 set screw to hold the signal bolt tight. \\ The tree can be torqued back properly by use of a crows foot on a socket wrench applied to the coupling.
