Do you ever feel like a complete idiot?

Hey guys, I got to looking at greys pictures of his progress rear sway bar, and realized that I put my sway bar on upside down. Im an idiot. Anyway. I have one last question for you guys. Do you think that I messed up greys end links with the one thats connected to the sway bar being angled all the way up taking all the weight of the rearend?
Thanks Realitycheck

First you are not alone I never told any body but I was tired when I put mine on and I did the same thing but drove around the block first to find it was wrong. Second I believe that the greys links are more beefy than oem ex's and thats what I have and they are fine going on 10k miles since reinstalled lol.

Well at least im not the only one. I kept wondering why it was so close too my lower control arms. It even hit sometimes on a bump. At least I found my problem.
Thats the only thing im worried about though. Cause they are turned up as far as the ball joint will go and so I know when I hit a bump that it like bottomed that joint completely out. I just hope I didnt screw it up.
Oh and thanks for helping me feel better, hehehe

You're definately not alone. Mine was upside down for two days and I couldn't understand why speed bumps made the rear end fly! The endlinks should be fine, especially since they're Grey's.

well i feel like a complete noob right now (well i am anways lol).

i was looking in the owner's manual in the maintenance schedule thing and it said i should inspect suspension components at 20k miles. i'm almost there (like 200 or 300 more) and i was wondering what exactly do i check.

thanks guys.
