Sounds like the relocation brackets. If you pull the lowers and measure the distance from center to center and they're the same then it most likely will be that the relocation brackets are off.

If the relocation brackets are installed incorrectly it can cause this... and this is common for them to be installed incorrectly. If the bolts are tightened with the brackets in the incorrect location it can cause this. Too many people move the brackets for the control arm holes to line up rather than moving the entire rear. The control arm holes in the brackets are patterned to follow the arc of the control arm, this way it prevents the rear end from moving.

Give Jerry a call here at our shop and he will be glad to give you some information... he is very good with these.

Hope that helps,
Ryan

it was easy to install everything sat where it was supposed to be. When right over the shock bolt seemed hard to install wrong! I can see the weld on's getting welded up wrong, but not these. I will be putting some Qa1's on today so i will check it out.
