Are all rear radius rods same size , that is- ‘28 thru ‘31 ?
Are they interchangeable?

I have a spare set that measure about 58 in length. I cant get under cars right now to check lengths. I’m thinking they all are same length ??

There are 3 different styles The early AR style does not interchange it is for the early single brake system . The first A radius rods had forged ends later changed to pressed steel ends they are interchangeable ,all the same length 28/31 .
