Default Draglink fix

So, I have a Synergy drag link. How, do you or can you keep the ends level and matched up? I have had one with forward cant and the other with a backward cant. But, read some where that could cause one to bind when flexed out and snap or something. It drives fine as is, just do not want to mess it up out on the trail. Though, it did fine at URE this past Saturday.

It's from the weight of the bar that causes the joints to flop forward. You can have one end fully drooped and the other level but not both it is what it is. That's why that company yeti and metalcloak have those new antiflop joints to keep the joints level

I've had the same setup on mine for a while and It's impossible to get them both level. Had mine on for several years with many trips to URE and just recently MOAB with no problems as of yet.
