Hard to say, you can cut some material off each end of the drop drag link if its a bit tight. You can shorten the torque rod to length, or make it adjustable - everything you need you can get at Bunnings - 14mm threaded rod and joining nuts.

Remove torque rod and forget about it, everyone i know who has redrilled the perches the dropped draglink has still been to long and needs about 15mm removed from each end - and possibly a bit off the end of the TRE
