M35 tie rods are not the correct design. They are your more typical tie rod with male threads coming off the ends. The CMP tie rod ends (and the 5 ton and M37s) have female threads where the clamp is built in to the tie rod housing.
It might be possible to lengthen the threads on the tie rod itself, cut the tie rod shorter, then use a pair of threaded sleeves and clamps and more traditional tie rod ends. But the rebuild of the CMP ends may well be easier once you find the correct tapered ends.
