The pivot on the side that the rod mounts to will move all the way back when the rod is disconnected. When I put the rod on , it stops half way back. This is the pivot by the right foot rest , not sure what its called. The pivot is all the way forward when it is down , so in my mind , shortening the rod would not let it go down fully. Maybe I am not thinking correctly . I will have to check it out again, thanks for the idea.
