Can someone double check my sway bar links install???
I put a picture of my old links in this album which show where I torqued my bushings/grommets with the chassis unloaded. I installed my new ones, but I am concerned that there is this gap at the front of the sway bar.
Also, note the picture of my passenger side shock. My sway bar was rubbing the shock which explains the "clunking" I heard any bump I hit...
Let me know if these new links look OK, and if not, what might be done to fix them. Didn't clunk when I backed it in and pulled it back into the garage which is where I really tended to notice it.

Looking at the pics in the above link, it looks like you're OK..
I took a second look at the shock/bar interference...How is the gap on the other side? Check to make sure the sway bar bushings on the rear axle are in their proper positions, and gripping the bar right at the bend, so the bar can't move side to side.
