Re: Stabilizer Bar Links, Horizontal Critical.
From the photo I am looking at, it seems you have extremely thick grommets (polyurethane?) that are causing the sway bar ends to be elevated. It also appears that you have cut down the length of the tube to shorten it, which helps some, but not nearly enough.
When I re-did my sway bar stabilizers, I used new OEM rubber bushings and kept my tubes the factory length.
If the thick polyurethane bushings are causing your problem, I would toss them and go back to factory original rubber bushings and new tubes of the proper length. That will get your sway bar horizontal. Yes, the rubber bushings will wear out, but they will last a while.
I keep a box full of good used rubber bushings around here to use as replacements for shock absorber bushings and sway bar bushings when old ones wear down. Haven't had to buy any in decades and still got plenty good ones to spare.
