Default Stabilizer Bar Links, Horizontal Critical.

Are the links supposed to be horizontal?

I am installing a larger diameter stabilizer bar on my Frankenwagen. I'm working on the links now and note that they are at an acute angle, top of bolt towards the rear of car. I used the same bolt holes--- as original install---for the clamps that hold the bar to frame.

I note I'm unable to get a good adjustment on the link/cushioning rubbers.

I think the bar will have to be moved forward but the xmember may only allow a bit of movement---before contact.

Is it critical the links be full on horizontal? Does it matter if the car front is on ramps and the rear on ground? Will that affect adjustment?

It will be necessary? to drill new holes forward of the original ones on the frame. Anyone else on this type of install?
