I looked at the one at the local Autozone and the threaded shafts were about 1/2 inchers and I did not like the hooks/retainers that were on it.
The thread rod on mine are 5/8 rods.

I replaced the threaded rods with American made 5/8 rod with nuts and used it today with no problems.
What I would like is to have a set with only 1 hook on each end. The end with the double hooks on it makes it harder to fit and also to use.
