i've got my Dellorto 34's all in place in my 67 Squareback and i'm trying to connect the hiem joints on the left side. My left and right hiem joint assembly are the same, but i can't get the left one to fit/position correctly. Is the left side hiem joint supposed to be a different style from the right one? Does it perhaps have a longer threaded rod between the two ends?
Thanks.

I recall one of the rod's on my baby dells on my 1st notch back in high school was longer than the other but hell,that's been almost 18yrs so I could be wrong but I'm 99.1% sure about it.

Isn't one left-hand threaded and the other right-hand threaded?

with further investigation, I have found that I am missing the LINKAGE EXTENDERS. I'll try CB for these, it will solve my problem.
