I just installed the leveling kit today and had the same issues. I have .5" clearence on the drivers side between coil spring and sway bar link and 1.5" on the passenger side. I verfified everything is seated correctly and springs are installed correctly. This is a 2010 JK unlimited sport. I also verified axle alignment is correct. Not to worried about it, but would be nice to know why it is like this.

Man some of you guys need to think this through.
"Im gonna hold off on ordering the terraflex leveling kit until this is resolved" Seriously. How can this be TF's fault? Its a nylon puck sitting on top of a factory spring. Its the exact same idea as a BB just with smaller rear pucks.
Wow...
Its a CHRYSLER problem, not terraflex.

Leveling kit
I got the same issure and just discovered it after reading all post. The left sway bar is closer than the right. Have had the kit installed for about a month, even wheeled it and no issues.

I envision TeraFlex adding a warning sticker to the instructions as an addendum warning the installer that "additional hardware may be required for certain vehicles", much the same way they handled the 2008 JK Budget Boost / Wheel Spacer issue

Umm.... Chrysler isn't the one who labeled the product as compatible with 2010 JK Wranglers.... just some food for thought.

I am not sure from reading this thread if these people are ever experiencing rubbing, or if it's just close tolerance. I'd love to hear of someone with this issue flex testing their JK to see if the links ever make contact with the springs.
If the links never make contact then I guess it wouldn't be a huge deal after all.
