The top looks ok but I would take out the metal spacer between the bushing the mount cause it looks like its way to kicked inwards!?!?
It should be strait up & down! Not on an angle!!!

I haven't connected the Track bar yet, so the whole Axle is pulled to the drivers side.

Ya but still the farther apart those r the more stress ur putting on the bolt also u need to turn the bolt around so its going inwardlike the top!
if the bolt is too long to take the spacer out then put the spacer up agenced the nut! (After u've turned it around)
U need a quick disconect pin any ways!

Sterling ...


Wish you had said something. The instructions are available for download on RE's site. http://www.rubiconexpress.com/Images...025/RE6025.pdf



You have assembled the sway bar link correctly. Just switch the lower bolt around (so the head is facing out). Then, add a drop of loctite & cinch it down.



Now you know why I said I recommend a track bar even with only 3-3.5 inches of lift.
