74 original strut rod length?
I need to know what the original strut rod length is from center of hole to center of hole, end to end.
I am building my own strut rods with heim joints and treaded tubing and believe that the tubes that
were sent to me are much longer than what I need. I gave my old ones away to a friend so I no longer
have a set to compare to.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks.

Yes, thats were I went wrong. I bought 14'' for some odd reason, not sure why. I will be cutting them down I guess.
Does 13'' leave enough space for adjustment in and out?
Thanks,
Riggs.
