ok, i will pull it as soon as i get a chance. is it gonna raise the truck though?

That ball joint is flipped, and that spacer is lowering the vehicle. But at the same time it is dangerous. Also that lower bag bracket isn't supporting the bag very well. That is a lot of unnecessary force on the single bolt int he bottom of the bag.

Should be like this.

yes your balljoints are flipped. and definetely remove that spacer. and then go from there. you may be laying really hard right now and could lay out fine after the spacer. 1st step remove the spacer and then go from there.

i see what you mean my brackets kinda go crooked but yours are paralell. so do i have to cut out and reweld the bottom bracket? what do you mean by unnecesssary force?
twisted minis   +1y
I mean when you lift the truck, the bag tries to pull in whatever direction is easiest. Since not much more than half the bag is supported, and that corner is very round it will try to push against that, which puts excess force on that bolt. Its prying against it in a sense. That bolts is only mean to locate.

yeah i c how like half the bag is hanging off the edge. back to fixing the problem. im gonna have to cut out and reweld my lower bracket arent i? thanks again for all the help.

I would pull the spacer out and see what happens. You might not need to do anything, and then again you might.
