I'm refferring to total rod length, not length installed. I put this one out there since he thinks his is to long so he could see if it was close. I know the 21 15/16" is the spec for a 20", I was just giving him the actual rod measurement so he could see if his was actually right. I'm willing to bet it is locked in neutral because he has the rod screwed in to far. I know thinking about it makes no sense, but with the geometry effect it happens.
