Friends (with a lift) and I installed an HRSB on my '93 S4 this
   weekend.  As a result of pre-install research, I obtained the rear
   sway bar sub-assembly and associated connective parts from a wrecked
   '95 Avant.  I also obtained John Tilden's heavy duty brackets to
   replace the factory brackets.  Other than having to tap a place for
   the second screw for JT's HD brackets, everything bolted right up.  We
   noticed the bar was favoring the right side and was just touching the
   left spring, however there was plenty of clearance on the right side,
   so we loosened everything up and pushed the bar more to the left so as
   to clear the spring and make the clearance on both sides more even.  I
   crawled up under the car with a light to check everything this
   afternoon and the bar has shifted back to the right and the inner part
   of the left side is very close to contacting the left spring again.
   Any ideas on how one solves this issue  Any BTDTs?
   Other questions: on the bar ends, does it matter on which side of the
   bar you connect the hemi-links ends.  Which is preferred?  I'm
   assuming they should they both on the same side (e.g. the outside).
   TIA for your collective help and wisdom
