Skywatcher NEQ6 Pro rail kit mod

Hello fellow Astro's,
Was wondering (hoping) if someone on here have completed a DIY Rail Kit Mod for their NEQ6 mount. I know there are COTS products available from Modern Astronomy, Sidereal Trading and Dark Frame Optics but obviously this comes at a premium. I tried searching for the details of the rail and push rod without success. If someone could point me in the right direction to get the measurement details I could attempt to make my own. Thanks for your help. Clear skies!

Hi Andre,

I stumbled across this SGL thread that you may be interested in, this guy made his own part to do the same job as the rail kit. It might give you some ideas.
