Jubilee clips won't do, you need the proper clamps. I would have thought any of the usual suspects would have them.

I did mine on my old V8 and measured the distance on the old one then set the new one to the same. When I had it checked it was spot on.

I purchased a new track rod recently and it came with the clamps. So it might have been they forgot to include yours in the box.
