Front sway bar links

Is there any difference between the right and left front sway bar links? I replaced my links with aftermarket ones when I replaced my struts now my car is making this horrible noise every time I turn the wheel to the right or keep straight.
I looked at Courtesy Parts section and it shows that the left side is shorter than the right side. Right side54618 CONNECTING ROD BUSHING, Left 54618M ROD ASSY-CONNECTING,STABILIZER . Also the left side is cheaper. The aftermarket ones were the same length.

Yes, they are shaped / angled differently. I ordered all four front and rear links from Mynissanparts.com, and they sent me FOUR front/left side links instead. What sucks even more is that I didn't open the box and realize what they shipped me, until I had the car on jack stands and had already removed the front/right side link! I ended up buying a F/right side one locally and didn't even bother doing the rears. So now I have three front/left side end links laying around.

Well, anyone need an OEM nissan front/left side end link for their 6th gen? PM me
