I read on another site that Cuda torsion bars are shorter than Challengers. Are they different for a convertible? And how do I identify the pair that I have? Thanks

Trying to go from memory here... I think I recall there was a change from 2 torsion rods for the deck lid to a single at some point around the time they stopped offering the rear deck lid mounted spoiler.  So if you have a set of 2 then they are most likely the early version.  Don't ever recall seeing any part numbers on them.

The long part of mine are 48" believed to be from a '70 Challenger. Anyone with a vert or a Cuda that could measure?

Just measured mine as best I could installed.
1970 Cuda -2 torsion rods... ~42.5"
1973 Cuda -1 torsion rod.... ~42.5"

Sorry, wish I had a convertible to help out with.

Anyone know if convertible ones are different than hardtop ones?
