They dont HAVE to be totaly adjustable... but it sure makes building it and then instaling it easier.

The one i made was partly adjustable. i had the main cross bar that bolts to the shock tower non-adjustable, and tailored to fit my chassis. I then had the two droplinks that attach to the frame horns addjustable so i could add a slight (just till snug) pre-load. but it also makes instaling them easier.

You can buy clevis ends or heim joints in standard thread or left hand thread online. Summitracing.com or jegs i do think has them along with the needed "jam nuts" and weld in threads bungs.
