Rear Sway Bar Links

[MStudt]

Okay... I got the links. It still seems like an odd angle. I only completed one side as I wanted some opinions/help.

I also noticed that the sway bar is chaffing on the shock body. I'm not sure that these links will do anything to correct that. I left the links at the lowest adjustment as the sway bar seems really close to the LCA.

Thoughts please... Thanks in advance.

First question is did you install the longer links in the rear? It looks like you have the longer links in the rear, but it's hard to tell from the picture. If this is the case they should be in the front, and the short links in the year. Sounds crazy, but that's how it is.

The next question is about the sway itself in relation to the links. Something is off with the sway bar, and the angle it's putting the links at. Either the sway bar is bent or shifted.

Maybe your Total Chaos rear trailing arms aren't adjusted properly and you have the rear axle pulled forward???

Or maybe the end link mounts were cut off and reattached to the frame? Seems odd that they're the only painted section on the frame rail, like someone painted over them after re-welding.

This fellow seems to have the same setup.
Doesn't look to still be active on the board, but maybe something in his build thread.
