Sway bracket, interesting that there is nothing to key into the upright or align when assembling. I tried to take into account how the drop link angle would change when the car settled back down to ride height. I will have a look at ride heigh to make sure the rod ends aren't binding.
Adjuster extension, would it possible for somebody to measure the distance from the nearest panel clip to the centre of the remote adjuster hole like in the attached picture?
I'm currently driving without my boot liner and the rear seats are folded flat, its quite amazing to see how much deflection there is in the top bushings on the shock mount when driving along, the adjuster is bobbing up and down over every bump. I actually double checked to see if it was tightened and assembled correctly.
Thanks Again

The easiest way to get the hole right is to drill the hole from below. Put the boot liner on place and drill a 10mm hole using the top mount as a guide.
