Alignment

This is about as close as you can get without getting a longer end sleeve setup. I used 1/2” spacers. That’s the max because you won’t be able to thread the top locknut. I had to clamp everything to start the locknut threads. As long as there’s no binding I’m good with the numbers I got.

That’s still too tight on the strut rod IMHO. The angle isn’t bad, that’s really not that concerning. I mean sure, ideally they’d be vertical and the bar would be horizontal to the ground. But that’s not a big deal.

The clearance to the strut rod is a big deal though. I wouldn’t run it like that. Maybe that’s just me, but I’d want significantly more clearance than what you’ve got. Find a welder, weld those brackets in the factory location. You’ll gain clearance, improve the angle on the end links, and probably be able to shorten the end links and level the bar too.
