Specify desired length in comments section of shopping cart. No returns/exchange on custom length links. Select your length based on the center-to-center of the heim rod ends, which will also be the eye-to-eye distance between the steering arms (the acutal tube will be 3" shorter than length selected). At selected length, the link will be adjustable from 1/4" shorter to 1/2" longer.
Note: Always use anti-seize to prevent galling the treads during final installation.
