Sway bar slanted?

[thanu31]

I was looking at the back of my wildtrak while my wife was driving in front of me and I noticed the sway bar seems to be on a slant. Is there something wrong?

that’s your panhard bar. It’s what centers the axle side to side. Sway bar is in front of the axle

The angle of the panhard bar is by design. attaches to frame on the high side, axle on the low side. these bars are required in 4-bar trailing link set-ups, like the previous member said to control lateral movement of the axle. you usually don't find them on Hotchkiss/leaf spring setups.

Completely normal the way it is. The above is correct this is not the anti sway bar.

That's the panhard bar. Sway bar is upfront. Perfectly normal.
