Default M030 Install question/issue

So I finally got a chance to drive my car following fitting the M030 suspension and new controll arms.

I went for a brief drive came back and checked out the suspension.

With all the new kit on, the front sway bar is just touching the control arm when driving, at standstill there is abouot 1/4 inch clearance.

Anyone had experience of this?

Doh! At least you got it sorted. Just make sure your sway bar end links aren't upside down too. Lol
