rear car sits higher than normal?

I didnt tight hard the bolt that attaches rear sway and the endlink.
going to do it anytime soon, was planning to reinstall after koni arrive.


now, when I look at the car, rear sits very higher than normal...
is it my eye? or is it really high due to the untighten bolt to the rear sway?
I heard if you install rear sway upside down, it makes rear sit higher,
but my rear sway bar is not upside down, the bolt is not just tight enough.

Anyone have ideas?
*I have stock spring if it helps.

sways do not effect ride height you had the car up in the air which removed sprung weight the coil will settle just drive it around the block.

thanks i have a headache now. lol.

even though i doubt the swaybar has anything to do with the ride height how come you don't want to tighten the sway bar? are we talking about the bushings or the end links? both are pretty easy.
