Drop Link Q?

[johny105_y2k 1]

I've just bought 2 new droplinks 1's longer by half an inch roughly. Now the car's been stood months and i removed the old ones and chucked them ages ago.

so firstly is this correct that they are 2 different lengths and which goes where long one to the /....... side.

 

 

Easy for those that know .

TA very much

they should be the same length mate,Is it another case of "the motor factors strike again??"

i was damn sure of this but thought i'd check. kind of makes sense as one is black and one is gold

I had this recently, bought one and it was longer than the one I took off... luckily it was the same lenght as the good one on the other side. So I had been riding round with them at different lengths for about two years!! Never noticed though...

so we are agreed they should be the same.

 

But which shorter or longer?

I had the same thing on my car, I ended up going for the longer ones, it does look right when its sitting BUT I found them more difficult to fit as I had to load up the ARB to get them in... Drives ok tho!

I always fit stuff like this in pairs so it wouldn't matter, as long as you have a matching pair...

thats what i was thinking but 1 is obviously wrong so i wanted the right ones .

i supose it'll be what they have when i take them back

I'm not sure if thats right..?

Surely one length would make the suspension act differently to the other no?
