Did I put these on backwards? Everything is driving fine and it is making no noises but looks off to me

So I'm waiting for my brackets to be delivered and I have the same sway bar links from Metalcloak. The top portion of the link is going to stick out more than before simply because you are adding the width of the bracket on top of the existing. However, I think the washer should be between the bolt head and the link. Not in between the link in the bracket. Like in the image below. Again, I don't have my brackets in yet so I don't have the instructions. But if you the washer to the outside so it's in between the bolt head and the link, it will move the top of the link inwards a small bit. Might be enough so it doest look as much cockeyed as it does.

I just received mine today, was thinking about switching to the ball joint links they have pictured on their website. First I have to figure out how to straighten the factory bracket so I can add these.

Installation looks correct.

Note: You should check your rear diff. centering, ie. track bar adjustment. An easy way to check this is with a long straight 2 x 4 piece of wood. On flat level ground, Put the 2x4 flat against both rear tires and measure the distance to the fender. If the distance is not the same, adjust your track bar to compensate. You might want to do the same for the front tires.
