Default Beak ITR Swaybar kit installation questions.

Okay I read the instructions and looked at the hardware, but something doesn't make sense here.

The holes you screw the mounts in on the subframe, they arent even. The top hole sits on a lip and the bottom one is indented a little bit, the way the beaks kit is designed I don't think it accounts for this?

Does anyone know what Im talking about? The Beaks instructions seem kind of lacking...

I believe I know what you're talking about. There is supposed to be another piece, a sort of "thick" washer that goes between the supplied plate and the subframe. If the washer/spacer is there, the plate should sit flat against the subframe.

I'll try a ghetto text picture (red part is the supplied plate, black is your subframe):

<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT>|
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT>|
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT> \
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT> | &lt;------That is your subframe profile on the right, note that the supplied plate doesn't sit flat against the subframe.


|
|
\
<FONT COLOR="blue">=</FONT>| &lt;-----The "=" is the spacer/thick washer

<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT>|
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT>|
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT> \
<FONT COLOR="red">|</FONT><FONT COLOR="blue">=</FONT>| &lt;-----The "|" is the plate that can now sit flat against the subframe.

Is my ghetto text picture understandable?

Yeah that's exactly it. But the problem is I don't have this washer....



That's everything that came with it...
