Rear 4-links and panhard bar lengths?

[Rogue-AE95]

Could I ask a huge favor... can someone measure the lengths of the 4-links and panhard bar in their AE86? I have poly bushings to use with my AE95, which uses the same bushings as the AE86, but I don't know if the actual 4-links are the same lengths between the two generations. I don't want to destroy a good set of OEM bushings in my 4-links, so I want to get an extra set of 4-links to use with the poly bushings.

I was looking through OEM part numbers, and the longer set of the 4-links have a different number between the SR5 and GT-S. And they're all different numbers than the ones found in my AE95.

AE86 4-links:
48720-12040 (lower -- longer, GT-S only)
48720-12020 (lower -- longer, SR-5 & DX only)
48710-12110 (upper -- shorter)

That topic? I don't see the lengths given for the stock 4-links. I'm not building adjustable ones...

With adjustable links you can change pinion angle which is very important when lowering or lifting a vehicle with a live axlen

I'm not raising or lowering my wagon, which is why I want to keep the stock 4-links. I don't like the idea of using Heim(?) joints for them as I've read that they give a harsher ride. I'm hoping the poly bushings aren't as harsh.

Heim joints are great. They aren't that much harsher than than poly or Delrin bushings. I dont know if I spelled Heim right.
