Hey no worries about asking questions thats what the forum is for, just glad I could help out. You probably have your rear sway bar still connected which will help limit the amount of body roll you have, thats why you didn't notice a difference. I am running anti-rock front and rear so I notice quite a bit more body roll. I would suggest taking your rear sway bar off and then driving around town to get a feel for it and then you could make adjustments if you like. Honestly looking at the angle of yours thats probably ideal for you, if you run neutral or negative angle you run the risk of the sway bar swinging around and impacting your front bumper if your flexing your suspension drastically.

For me the biggest benefit from going to this was the fact that I could just pull off theroad and hit the trail. I got to remove the electronic disconnect and I don't ever have to worry about shaking my rig or being on level ground to reconnect anything. Depending on the angle your set at you will lose a little bit of flex somewhere in the area of a half inch to one inch but to be honest I have never noticed.

Also, when completely disconnected, the body roll was just way too much.

To the OP. It looks fine, but take a look at trimming the body mount. It looks like you will contact it at full compression. I had to do this with mine. I have Antirocks front and rear, and love them. The jeep is very predictable on the trails.

[QUOTE=ronin2120;3832901]They look fine.
The higher the angle the less body roll you'll get.
How does the angle affect body roll? That makes absolutly no sense.
The amount of body roll you get will depend on the torsion bar twist rate and the length of the arms. The longer the arms the more leverage is placed on the torsion bar and increase twist (more body roll).
You can run them level and even pointed down a bit. You must look at the total travel of your suspension so at full droop you do not fully extend the arms strait down or the swar bar could potientally flip around forward and lock up your steering and likely damage your links.

I'm no expert and maybe I'm way off base with this but if the arms are pointed up (lengthing the links) and your making a turn wouldn't the bar engage sooner creating more resistance thus tightening sooner therefore limiting your bodyroll more then if they were neutral or pointed down?

Length of the links should not affect the amount of resistance. Where you mount the top of the link on the arm is how you adjust the tension. The farther out you mount the links the lighter the resistance.

Thanks for the info Dirtman 
I didn't get the adjustable arms for the front on my set-up but assumed that by adjusting the links you could achieve some tunablity. I realize that I wouldn't get the same if I had the adjustable arms but I figured you'd get some.
