I thought the Teraflex kit used a bracket to relocate the lower mounts, and they should point to the passenger side of the jeep?

i didnt see no bracket i will have to go back and look bought full kit looks as everything came with it and the studds are in as the direction video shows if thats what you mean. Only thing i think with relocation bracket i think the end link would be to long if im not mistaken

Something isn't right with the picture there. I've taken a picture of mine for you to compare. My studs are roughly 1.5" and there's 2 3/4" (roughly) of space between the face of the sway bar bracket and the track bar bracket. We can see you've got a lift on it with the bumpstops and it looks like someone has welded C gussets in place....maybe they relocated that track bar bracket or the studs are simply too long. On the JKS, the stud for that position isn't fully rounded out like what you're showing, it's cut at the correct length to get the link on plus a clip- no extra leading angle for lining up.
