tension rod different lengths?


Recommended Posts

I was putting my front suspension backtogether, and noticed when I torqued the tension rods back to spec, the drivers side rod had about 1/2 an inch more of threads showing on the other side of the nut. I measured both rods, and the drivers is shorted by 1/2 inch!

 

The actual rods are the same length, but the the length from the first bolt hole to where the bushing starts is shorter. The shorter rod looks like it was damaged slightly in the area where the bushings sits, maybe from rubbing on the frame.

 

Is this common, or is it some kind of ghetto fix for some other problem?
