Hey guys I mounted a brake pivot now the rod from the drum to the pivot is to short. any know how to make this one from tc bros bike? If I make it from 1/4 inch rod the ball joint will be to small for the pivot hole.

Not sure what you're looking for.

If 1/4 rod stock is too small, can you just move up to 5/16ths or 3/8ths?

Looks to me like the adjuster end by the brake arm on the drum is awfully small, so perhaps the solution is to use 1/4" stock as originally planned and adapt the ball joint to it either via a bushing or a stud welded to the end of the brake rod.
