ISIS tension rod problems

Hello,

I installed new ISIS tension rods on my s14 a few months ago and I seem to be having a problem...They keep loosening up..I put threadlocker on them etc etc and after about 1000 miles of driving they loosen up. when i installed them I set them to the correct length to match the stock ones and the install was easy. Also the pillow ball part of the rods seem to be binding and crooked in the sleeve. I attached a diagram that I found that shows me problem (scroll down to page 4 at bottom) but doesnt say what to do to fix it. My rod ends look like the pic on the right after installation. Idk if they need to be lengthened or shortened or what..
Please help. My car feels unsafe on the road when this happens...I want to get this all straightened out before i get a full alignment.

Thanks
