dtrtw, I would first check and make sure that the swaybar isn't installed upside down. Reference the pictures below. Notice how the swaybar bends down.

It is true that the top and bottom holes are not exactly perpendicular, but this does not cause a problem.

How difficult is it to swap the sway bar?

Is it just a matter of unscrewing the two bolts and then just swapping it?

no you need to drill your subframe for the bsq kit...cuz if u only use 1 bolt u'll tear out your subframe...for the poster I'm guessing you messed up with your drilling. My sway bar doesn't rub against anything

its just the angle, I followed the directions

+ you enlarge the same exact holes

Probably the difference u see is that my ABS bracket is half assedly connected

This was kinda weird when I did mine too. What I did was enlarge the bottom hole and "extend" it a little to the left so that the top hole and the bottom hole lined up straight. That's alright, isn't it? I figured that would be the only way to make the brackets line up right.
