The OEM arm is bow shaped, what is it designed to miss? I could look but it is too cold to kneel and look under the car in the garage. I guess the straight arms could be bent when red hot without too much worry.

I never bothered much about alignment issues so I have no knowledge of it really.
The OEM links are 11.3/4" centers. You can start by setting the adjustable links to 12" centers. The OEM links curve around the sway bar. The straight ones come awfull close but if you lower the car by 1" or less, it will be fine. The fact that it is straight makes it much stronger and rigid.
