Question on Draglink
 
Last night I was taking some parts off to be cleaned up and prepped for painting and I removed the draglink. After removing the ends I noticed that one of the threaded ends has a slight bend to it. I don't think this is normal but I thought I would ask. The parts lookup and the manual appear to be straight but looking at something that small in a picture and the way my eyes are I can't tell!

Its not supposed to be bent but most of them are, if your real careful you can straighten it but it wont hurt if you leave it alone.

that is what I was thinking too. Not quite sure how it would get bent but oh well it is still solid.

Probably happened when someone ran into something, the one on my 108 i just painted was bent and i opted to leave it alone.
