In the left hand picture it looks to go under and has a tab that bolts to the frame theres no way it will bolt to the k frame without going under sway bar
Picture shows it going over the sway bar.

Not being critical, but maybe correct the heading of the thread in case another member is searching for the same information in the future. ;)

Sway bar links are ALWAYS a pain in the ####,
and the check the top Tower nuts,
zip them up with a rattle gun, and a deep 24mm socket.
Also check the Lower K Frame Bolts with a Tension Wrench,

Maybe check the Whole front end with a Tension Wrench, then you know you have covered all bases.

Sounds like whom ever did the job swapping the K frames did a piss poor job.
