Control arm/swaybar clearance
I've just changed out all the bushings on my 26.8mm sway bar. When I was installing it I noticed that there's only a couple of millimeters clearance between the sway bar and the control arm. Is that right? Does anyone have any photos?
Please don't tell me I've put it back in upside down!

Also the bracket that holds the center bushing should straddle the support that goes up to the chassis, not be next to it.
As is now, its clamping down on the bushing whereas you just want it snug.
I've installed mine backwards too, back in the day when I was first starting to tinker

I'm not game to post any photos of the rear sway bar, just in case.
