Sway bar end link contacting A-arm

Uh, is this normal? Because it certainly doesn't look that way. The mounts aren't broken, but my sway bar end link is hitting the a-arm and has even worn a shiny spot on it. Has anyone else had this problem?

I noticed the same thing when I was replacing my stock sway bar. I think it was just out of line. The ST sway bar cleared just fine. You might try to unbolt it and re-center the sway bar in the mounts????

My car was like this when I bought it. Check your sway bar mounts carefully. I'm pretty sure you'll find that one or both of them are bent. Pretty common on these cars.
