Default Clutch Slave Rod?

Anyone know if there is any way to get just the rod for ZF clutch slave. I was putting new system in and must have had it crooked when tightened it up and put bend in rod?? Trying to make C-4 gathering and kinda of under the gun now! Thanks Ike

I might have a stock one also. Let me run home and check. I had one made for me at a machine shop from "drill" stock as an attempt to fix another problem.

Thanks for all response! Went through all my old parts and found the original rod. It is quite a bit heavier duty than replacements which have broke one and now bent one! So this should get me by! GM has discontinued the slave cylinder when I checked today!! First bad then none! I wouldn't want to add up what I've spent on this since replacing original 3 years ago. 3 Slaves, 3 master cylinders! anybody have a decent picture of how the rod assembly goes together
