Most KRs use cables, but my next plane will also have aileron pushrods. It may be a little heavier, but if one falls off, at least the other side still works! I think what you're fishing for is the AN490 rod end, which is riveted or welded into a tube. Wicks and AS&S both carry them. In my case, I'd rivet the steel pushrod end into an aluminum tube, probably a half inch OD at a minimum. Tubing wall thickness depends on the rod end size. Then I'd choose an appropriately threaded female rod bearing for ends. Play your cards right and get opposite-hand threads to make the adjustment process easier...
