Default Rear sway links to the front and front to the rear?

I recently had a Pro Comp CRT 2.5" lift installed and love it so far. The only thing I have a question on is that they moved the front sway links to the rear and the rears to the front, is this normal? Should I buy some aftermarket rear links?

Here is the lift that was installed:

this would NOT be correct. if anything, you can install your factory rear links to the front but you will need to install new longer links for the rear. if what you said is actually what the instructions say to do, it's either a mistake or a gross error on their behalf.

Nope (as stated) not correct. If you put your rears on the front, you can then buy new adjustable links for the rear. With a 2.5" lift you might not NEED longer links in the rear but since you're changing things around anyway, I would get adjustable links and set the angle up correctly. Front links will be too short.
