The front sway bar is hitting the frame. Any thoughts on what I should do ? Don't have much room to move it over without the other side hitting the frame as well. I attached some pictures. Also I think the sway bar link is mounted incorrect on the bottom am I wrong on this? Thanks for the help. 20170605_184948.jpg

The side that's hitting the frame looks a lot more bent that it comes from factory.
 
Hard to tell from the picture, but it looks like your passenger side link is mounted outboard rather than inboard. Should be vertical but yours looks like it's not.

Re the frame contact, I would push the sway bar to the driver side. If necessary you could clearance it by grinding a little off the round tube sticking out of the frame. Don't crazy with that though. And be sure to paint the bare metal to prevent corrosion.

fairly common issue. take a sawzall and cut the tube off just outboard of weld. hit it with some black paint and call it good.
