Are you tightening all the hardware with the suspension loaded as you should when doing suspension work? Before tightening bolts or making adjustments, you must use a floor/trans jack to raise the specific suspension arm to the same height it would be with the vehicle sitting on it's wheels on the ground. If you tighten suspension hardware with the arms just hanging down, unloaded, the rubber bushings and heim joints will not be orientated correctly when the car is put back down on it's wheels.

The PDF VOODOO install guide you linked doesn't even mention loading the suspension before final tightening. Epic fail and a recipe for disaster.

Load the suspension before centering the heim joint and tightening the tension rods. Problem solved.
