my 2 cents.
Must take a bit of pressure to lift.
I dont think the upper bag mount will last the test of time.
and there should be more angle in the upper bars.
Besides the obvious. Dude your bars are backwards.

my thoughts. those bag mounts should be moved more towards the axle, and have shocks. and i personally wouldent run a reverse link.

the upper bars are fine. that looks like its more than 30 degrees. ive seen way less.
and yeah. what he said. reverse 4 links are dumb. they go against the law of physics when accelerating and especially braking

Its not just the angle of the bars that determines how much lateral support you'll get. With long upper bars like that, with poly bushings, and the lack of angle between them, thats is almost for sure what is causing the swaying of the rear end. If that same angle were on a forward 4 link, you wouldn't have an issue because the 4 link would be pulling the axle... but with a reverse link system, the 4 link is pushing the axle down the road, so if the angle is not large enough, as shown, and the bars are super long (giving more leverage on the poly joints), you run into this guys issue.

i see what your saying, but not sure im agreeing. im against reverse 4 links myself, but i know people with reverse 4 links with about the same angle and they dont have an issue with doing 180's out of nowhere...
i'd almost wonder if the wheelbase is different and the rear axle is crooked and pushing the truck in a different direction?

probobaly not though, it would have to be off pretty drastically to cause that and from the looks of those pics it dont look like its off...

looks like there should be enough angle, but with the bars mounted reverse, its going to multiply any kind of anomolies. also those bag mounts are way too close to the pivot, thats gotta be making the ride very soft, which is alos another factor in the sway.
