Okay how about this... There's very minimal side to side movement. If it's bad, we'll change it. But I think it should be fine. we'll see!

That works... Just giving constructive critisism, not trying to bash your build.

I am on my 3rd track bar set up and am just not finaly happy with what I have.

Why do you guys want more pics? It's basically done besides the exhaust. That's kinda how it was in the other pics.
