RSB owns my tie rods (pics)

[XLr8]

So after awhile with a trd rsb only minor squeeking, then evolved into feeling like metal was hitting. Drive to the dealer and I do notice my rear wheels angled outwards slightly. Ends up the bar has been grinding on my tie rods and has bent them.


I am wondering is it possible the bar installed upsidedown and is this the correct orientation if were viewing from the rear?

I am lowered on vogtland/tokico if that could be a factor? though noone else with this sort of a drop here has had rsb problems. Had stock bar put back in and still was rubbing with brand new tie rods, can get photos of car install in a bit. Any insight on this dilema would be appreciated.

it's possible to install it upside down... but your wheel well would have a 9 finger gap (right chris? lol)

thanks for the pics! It was inserted differently for sure though no 9 finger gap lol. Anyways I am curious about your rsb mentat, compared to the one i have the curves at the ends are different is it a whiteline?

thanks again.
