I ordered my american thunder kit and recieved it on friday and installed it on saturday, but I ran into a couple problems and was hoping that someone could help me out that has maybe had this issue.
The passenger side is fine, but on the driver side, the tip is twisted and pointed towards the bumpter cutout. The problem is, I can straighten it out so that it looks good, but part of the loop that runs over the axle would ride on what I think is one of the control arms (I think). Its just a bar that runs from the axle to the body and has a pivot point on both sides. So, to increase my clearance (which was maybe 1/4", not much), the tip looks awkward. I'm all about doing it right, and this doesnt look right at all. It sounds good, but looks terrible.
Like I said, the passenger side is fine. The tip comes out straight with plenty of clearance, but I dont know what to do with the driver side. I tried to shift it around a bit in the hangers and such, but I still cant get any more clearance, or make the tip come out straight. Should I just take it to a shop? Should a shop be able to fix this?
Thanks in advance, Matt.
