Installed new bushings...worried about Bronco lean.

I'm in the process of lifting my EB 3.5"s. After I installed 7 deg. c-bushings the radius arms aren't parallel to each other. The passenger side at the threaded end that connects to the frame is about a 1/2" higher than the drivers side. After I noticed this I took everything apart to make sure I had the bushings installed correctly. After I put them back together it came out exactly the same. I guess I'm looking for tips on how to get them parallel or is a 1/2" going to make a difference. I don't want to put everything back together and have it leaning to one side.

Thanks
Jaromy

You will probably have to bolt it all up and see what you have. Good luck. Ill be taking mine back out before long. I hope i hit it right the first time. I did the last time i did it.

I was afraid of that...I was hoping it wouldn't come to that. I will try to loosen everything up again tomorrow and see if I can get it any closer.

seems to be alot of problems with lean these days. Could it be due to the softer bushings being made? I'll be removing mine again this weekend to try and fix it again. This time I am installing new coils too.
