the first orientation of the bar was correct.

all you needed to do was unbolt the endlinks and pivot the bar up, then refasten the endlinks.

now you gotta take the bar off again. you should be faster this time though!

Last night I jacked the rear right site up to see if I would have any ruybbing issues with the left front. I only have another 1/4 inch of room.

Looks like I will have another project and I will try to increase my time down from 1 and 1/2 hours.

Is everyone sure I should do this?

Thanks,

Since the bar was installed incorrectly would that pose any damage to other components even though it was not on for a while... (a week)?

Thanks,

ok. I think I am getting closer. I do have one question. The end link instructions say that the small end of the end link should be against the sway bar.. but having the thick side on the frame will make the bolt rub against the bar?

Is this correct?

PS. this one only took me 45 - 50 min.
