I just installed UMi roto/roto rear lca's. I'm having alot of slop/rattles from my rear so I pulled the wheels off and noticed both rotos were angled. I would think they should be horizontal to the ground. Is this normal?

Yeah that's perfectly normal, it'll do the same thing with rod-ends, spherical bearings, and Johnny Joints. It'll basically stay that way until the rear-end articulates enough in the opposite direction to move it.
As far as the slop/rattles from the rear make sure all jam-nuts, bolts, and nuts are tight, and that the roto-joints have some pre-load on them(they shouldn't be loose).

Dang that seems kinda awkward didn't know they did that good info I guess. I plan on getting some also

Yeah, I still catch myself every now and then straitening them out when I have the car backed up on a set of ramps greasing lube points.

I feel like my rear has alot of side to side travel. Could this cause any? I'm leaning towards it being my torque arm being shot.

Your TA isn't going to cause that.
First, make sure all the lca relocation bracket mounts points are tight.
I'd then look at the phb, it's mount points, and phb support bar mounts.

I had some on my Watts link and they had some rubber hose to keep them aligned. Not enough to make it stiff, but enough to stop it from twisting around. Thought it was pretty clever.

Just rubber heater hose. Goes over the steel spacer.

Something to try.
