ok well i had to replace a outer rod end because the end broke in half yesterday so there i am trying to put it on and its not going on. So I'm like ok what the hell is the problem so i keep tryin pushing in REALLY hard and even tried putting the rod end in the chuck on my drill, I was trying for like 15 mins when all of a sudden CLICK the light bulb in my head goes off and i remember its left handed thread. The end goes on with no problems but man did i feel like a dumbass and a half. LOL
 
i got no idea what u are talking about. "outer rod end"? I'm more confused then anything... are u talking about a turnbuckle?

Yes, he is referrinf to the turnbuckles. Those plastic things on the ends are called rod ends.
 
LOL!!!!!!
I always have to be consious of what way I am wrenching if I am doing it left handed. Really felt like a dumb ass once when I lost $5 betting someone they couldn't get this bolt out, and I was turning it the wrong way. $%^&*$@#^*(^#
