Hiya guys,

As you can see in the pics, the right side tire swing out as well as the section behind the right rear tire are a bit out of alignment.
I've e-mailed ARB for the install manual, but they are being a bit slow.
Does anyone have any insight into where the adjustments have to be made to align these 2 sections?

Thanks in advance!

I just noticed some shadows in the 1st 2 pictures. If the photos aren't clear, the front facing end of the side of the bumper is slowly getting higher than the rear end.
When we first installed it, this was even across the whole way.
I want to make sure nothing is slowly coming loose or something, I feel like it will keep sagging until it starts pushing against the body.

I cannot answer your questions but the attachment may help?

I've installed both kaymar and ozbar rear carriers and have found across many cars they always have an upward angle against the rear quarter for some reason, I installed a packer between the chassis and carrier bracket on mine and it worked out nicely. Not too sure how to correct the swing arm gap though

@RedesKat , do you need two hands to swing away the spare wheel and open the upper tailgate with that set-up?
