The best approach is to use right threaded screw on one side of a rod and left threaded screw on the other. Glue the screws to the rod. Then screw the ball joints at the screws. This allows you to adjust the rod length precisely. Otherwise (if you would use the same threads on both sides of a rod) you can set the rod length with the precision of pitch/2 only (that means 0.25 mm for M3, not very good).

Marlin firmware can be easily updated to support different rod length for each tower (Repetier even supports this out of the box). But rods connecting to the same tower must be the same.
