I wish I could draw a picture and down load it. You can do this using existing holes and not modify anything and have a set up that pushs the latch up with out being attatched to it.

If you think about the rod being supported by some type of bracket that will let it slide up and down and drill a hole in the rod for a clevis pin, so it cannot slide down to far. You could also put a spring in place so the rod does not rattle.

I can see it clearly in my head but that probably does not help you too much.
