Scaling body along specific axis

How do I scale the cylinder in this picture along the construction axis I created?

The "non-uniform scale" option only allows me to scale along the primary axes of the coordinate system.

 

I'm OK with re-setting the primary coordinate system, as long as the object doesn't move in the world assembly (there are more components, hidden right now.)

I just need to scale the object along that construction line.

Press Pull will not work on a BSP threads or any of the Whitworth form threads. What I do is create the thread in a separate body scale in 2 axis to increase it's diameter only then position it into the main body and combine. In effect make a insert with the thread.
