Do my Droplinks look right?
Guyz
I fitted my new CDF Droplinks a few weekends back and want to check they are done correctly!
Probs done around 50 miles since fitting them. The front ones just look a bit twisted to me? But maybe that's correct? There were 2 quite thick washers in the pack that I didn't fit that maybe I should have?
Below are a couple of pictures at normal ride height.
Any advice welcomed

I noticed that the day after so put a large washer on the outside so no problems there now, only the angle they sit at, should have used a later photo but could get out off work to go snap 1! I will move the 5mm spacer tonight after work, providing its not damn raining!

Some of these will sit at more of any angle than others, same as all other brands will .
You must use at least one large washer each side of the link to stop them pulling bolts through.
If you are not happy or have any questions , pm me - i can sort out more washers/spacers etc
will do my best to reply within a hour
cheers chris

just to add , the links suit both alloy and steel arms, its just we supply a smaller bush in one side of the links with a clearance hole for a m8 bolt instead of m10

Crikey this has escalated!
Thanks for all the input! Just about to go out and fit the thicker washer!
Chris-not knocking the products one bit! Well happy with them! Just wanted make sure i had fitted them correctly. The car literally feels like a different motor. To the point where I now can't even get the tyres to squeal because I don't have the ***** to go into the corners/roundabouts any faster! (Yet ) it's awesome! Haven't even had the geo set up to suit yet either!
Cheers
