Is your rear upper piece over the cradle the whole way, it may just be the picture but it looks like it's angled like it caught on one side.

Are you talking about the 1st and 2nd pics starting from the top? It does look to be caught on both sides. Both drivers/Passenger side is the same. These pics were taken on the alignment rack today. We looked everything over and everything looks fine. Pretty straight forward. If you look ForTehNguyens post "well you are putting those circular reinforcements in it that go between the subframe and body, they have a thickness as well" it makes sense. Also just went out and ripped gears from a standstill and still have wheel hop. But it is improved. I am going to get everything there is to strengthen this rear IRS. Then start with the front. Also need to replace these skinny *****ish end links. Look at the Beefy Hotchkis bar compared to that end link :doh:

I highlighted the area that looks strange to me.
No that piece is flush on top and bottom. I think it just might be angle of pic but yea we double checked everything. Thanks.

I do agree that the pic above looks odd. Due to the issue you are having, I suggest possibly lowering the cradle down an inch, making sure the black lockout rings are centered, and re-torquing the (4) cradle bolts.

As long as the OEM sleeves are making contact with the chassis on all (4) mounts, there really is nothing with the kit that could cause a ride height change, that I am aware of.

Definitely an odd issue, that is certain.

Thanks for getting back with us. I have a very good LED light and put eyes right up on these to be sure everything was flush. Both sides are even just 3/8ths of an inch higher. I am installing subframe alignment kit this weekend as well as rear diff. bushings and pulling H&R lowering spring switching to linear springs. Will take more pics. Again thanks.
