Actually, my problem is that the rod somehow turns itself. I tried using CA glue to tighten the rod into the ends knowing it won't be a good bond, but figured it would be good enough. It helps for a while, but eventually start adjusting itself again.

I should mention this happens mostly on the rear. I think my drift-style turning puts a lot of pressure on those rod ends (since that's what keeps the toe adjusted) and eventually wears away at the nylon threads until it loosens. That's my theory anyway...
