The rod should never be bent - check the manual, and go to the 80's section and see what they are doing as the 80's have the same thing and it needs to be adjusted when it is raised. As you bend the rod and raise the truck you actually straighten the rod and extend it - so you are actually limiting the movement of the device (decreasing the movement) which will make it work not as well.

Imagine lifting the truck 18 inches (an over example), the rod is completely straight trying to reach the actuator and it is completely straight - now imagine the axle going up and down - the action doesn't seem right eh?
