The rods that go from the bell cranks to the changer tuners are 5-40 threads. That is not a typo, it really is 5-40.
I can't answer about the same industry wide. However, Emmons Legrande II and Zums are the same. Maybe someone who works on other brands can answer that question for you.
I had to special order a tap and die combo in that size to thread the rods.

| The threads on my Zum are 5-40 as mentioned. Just received a die from Enco last night, one inch round die, high speed steel, <$8.00. |

| I have made a couple rods for Emmons and Derby Steels. They use 7/64 rods and 5-40 is the thread size. Welding rods are not made in this size. Used Drill Rod to get the right rod to make them. |
