When building custom suspensions links, is there a disadvantage to using 2 RHT or LHT tube adapters instead of 1 of each? The link length will be pre-adujsted and don't see a need to adjust it while on the car.

If you use two RHT then you have a finite adjustment. You can only adjust the length to every 1/4 turn of a rod end. If you are using 3/4-16 thread than you will have an adjustment every 1/64 of an inch. Which is well within the tolerance of a suspension link.

Ooops, your adjustment would be every half turn, so your length accuracy would be to the nearest 1/32 of an inch.
