    Throttle control rod length curiosity

    My car came with the shorter control rod pictured (black) that measured 10.125 from socket to socket. The new one measures 10.5 as I believe it should. I think Ford changed the length again in 39 to 10.75. So, I'm just wondering where this shorter rod came from? I get a much better return to...

    stuck wheels
