Default WTF?! Sway bar ends hitting strut bottoms on 4k

Obviously I have it installed wrong, but I can't deduce just how I've screwed up. Car has a 4kq sway bar on it (larger diameter) but I had it on prior to the complete front end rebuild with no problems. I checked every illustration I can find and it isn't on upside down. Anyone had this problem? Presently baffled and embarrassed. Some images of what looks right would be great.

There are 2 different bars. 1 bolts to the lower
A arm, other has a "S" shaped link to the A arm.

Which one do you have, and what year 4KQ bar did you get?

If I recall correctly, you need a bar of same, or
higher year, than your Coupe.

I had the bar from an 87.5 4KQ.
