Which rear mounts are you running? If they are the aluminum bar looking ones, take them off now.

the brackets that connect to the control arm look like this: ---------------I]- ,bar,bolt that goes through bracket to control arm, when i first recieved the bars it came with the radius rod piece that connected to the top of the conrtol arm but i was told to send them back. Another thing that came to mind is that on the driver side the bar acts as a turnbuckle, but on the passenger side when you loosen turn one side the it doesnt act like a turnbuckle and the bar just falls off.... not sure if it is suppose to be setup up like this or maybe the threads are messed up not sure, thanks for all the info so far though.

those were the old ones, but if you sent them back in, you probably got the proper goods in return. I really cant tell what the problem is, did you check all the threads?

i never sent the whole setup back, only two little connector pieces, it seems like the threads on the passenger side are NOT working properly(not like a turnbuckle).
