[gibbo1471]

Hi everyone a silly question I have changed my front drop links again could you tell me are the 2 threads the same length on the link bars just asking as once tightened up the top bolt has some thread out the bolt the lower one has none but is tight they are correct ones for car compared 3 is this right thanks

yes same size

[gibbo1471]

So does the top thread come out longer at the top than the bottom thanks

[dezwez]

iam sure it does

[artscot79]

bottom one goes through the anti roll bar top doesnt so the top thread looks longer but isnt

[gibbo1471]

So you can't get them the wrong way round they are indentical top and bottom don't matter which way you install them

[gibbo1471]

The bottom one that passes through the roll bar will hav less thread through than the top

As already said, simply the anti roll bar is thicker than the bracket on the strut so yes this is perfectly fine.
