Don,t think it matters which way up they go as long as there both the same way.
Here,s some pics of mine.

No new parts,except the shackles.All other bits were original that were reconditioned and powdercoated.Cost abit but worth it .

Yes ABS stayed on ,less hassle.The paint i used was HAMMERITE SMOOTH HAMMERED GREY.
A pain in the arse doing an underboby resto,but well worth it when it,s finished.
