Hi guys,

Looking for advice and experience with setting up a oem front sway bar.

Everything fits and looks ok, however, when I install the drop links,
it appears that the two eyes are twisted.

If I remove the new rubber bushings and put one end flat against the
mount, the other end is not "flat" against its mount. It looks like it's off
by about 5-8deg.

I can install the bolts, but when moved up and down, you can see that
the rubber bushing is squized, by the 5-8deg offset.
Both side have the same symptoms and I also swapped the rods.

Questions:

1) is this normal, hence the rubber bushing used to compensate for potential
tolerances and movements?

2) Did anybody install adjustable drop links from Weltmeister or Tarret on
setup? Any pros or cons?

3) Any other solutions/suggestions for my "issue"?

Thanks in advance for your feedback,
D.C.
