    I can't shake this dang clunk. My FSB is hitting the control arm. I wonder if it was installed, by some idiot, upside down. Good I thing I didn't charge myself for the labor when I installed it.

    Yea looks a little scary the way you have it. Looks real close to the steering.

    Yeah, my whiteline went under the control arm. Looks like it's installed wrong.

    You might want to get your alignment checked. You will eat up your tires in a hurry if you bent your tie rod.

    Don't worry, I did the same thing with my whiteline fsb. Maybe there's something wrong with their directions?
    Fixed it with no damage done to my alignment.
