Adding some dimensions for OE links.  Pic for general reference:     Overall length (center of joint stud to end of top post): 8-1/4" Install length (center of joint stud to center of post bushings, uncompressed): 6-7/8" (compression probably reduces it by 1/8" to 1/4") Post length: 2-1/8" Post thread length: 3/4" Joint stud length: 7/8" Shaft diameter: .395" (might vary on OE vs. aftermarket) Threads (both ends): M10 x 1.25
