Mine binds in the same spot on both sides. It seems about 3/4 an inch too long, and wedges in quite solidly.

I did get one measurement from someone else. It matches yours almost perfectly with two exceptions. The small diameter is 1.632 (as opposed to 1.72 in your drawing) and it also has a much larger chamfer at the end.

I'll have to get a flashlight into the bore and see whats going on.

Questions regarding the dimensions of TL7477 resurfaced... the end lengths being observed to +- match what Dave provided. The smaller end diameter in millimeters on one original example is +- 41.65 ... similar to what Rob found.

Just to add to the mix I have two jacking bars. The green painted one has no id marks at all but fits the hole in the suspension on my No2 MK2* correctly. Both ends of this bar are the same diameter unlike most of the other bars in this thread. The bare steel bar does have a number stamped on the end but no letter prefix so not very helpful. The parallel end is too large to fit the suspension and the other end is tapered so not ideal as it can slip out of the suspension. If anyone knows what this one is for is it available.
