The picture is a little deceiving since the rods on the transmission are higher then the rods in the floor but.......The top and middle rods are both straight and are the same lengths in both sets. The bottom rod is straight in one set and curved/bent in the other set. But the distance from mounting point to mounting point is the same. What is the deal? 1970 Barracuda B5 6.1 Hemi/6 speed 1969 Charger survivor in R6 383/727-wrecked 12/24/18 1968 Charger in original burgundy paint "Ribeye" 1968 Charger w/ 6.1L, TR-6060, 9" 1968 Roadrunner w/ 6.1L/6 speed 2011 Dodge Ram w/ 6.7L

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
