Default Sway Bar/Control Arm Issues

Ok, so I installed my Upper and Lower Granatelli CA's today. When putting the sway bar back on the lower CA's I had to bend the sh*t out of it to get it to fit between the two conrtol arms. I finally got it to work, but now my sway bar hangs to low. It doesn't look anything like it used to. You can tell it is slightly flexed inward to fit in between the CA's. Does anyone else have or had this problem when they were installing their CA's. I wnet over everythin in the suspension and can't see how I could've screwed it up. I would post some pics so you guys know what I mean but it is late, about midnight. Please let me know if any of you have seen this before.

Ok, so I got the sway bar installed the correct way. Reversed the blt plates and installed it onthe outside of the CA's. It still hangs rather low. Anyone else seem to think it hangs low with the Granatelli CA's.

Exactly. It hangs under the axle, so it will travel with it. Don't worry, you won't drag it over speed bumps.
