rock krawler rear sway bar links
Need help! I can't seem to find installation instructions but for some reason I think I installed them wrong. Installed them on brackets close to tire and notice when I flex that they come real close to hitting tire. Any help would b appreciated .

I think you've found that you're okay. For the heck of it, here's mine:
My 16x8 wheels have only 4" of backspace. Really, if you think about it, if they're not hitting your tires at rest, they're unlikely to hit at all. The bottom bolt is stationary, in relationship to the wheel/tire, and the top will move a very small amount as the sway bar moves because the sway bar end and the axle aren't on the same pivot point and radius.
