The holes in the frame will be just big enough for the hellwig bolts so there shouldn't be a any play unless then again the wrong set were choosen which can happen

Regardless if you installed it in the wrong hole, the nut should be self-locking, and not work itself loose. Might be time for a good dab of LocTite or some new hardware. |

In reference to the original post and picture: Is that Hellwig's NEW style drop links?? Are they not two (junky) pieces anymore? If so, that would be good.
