Rubber Bushings

[msk1986911]

What is the correct orientation for the rubber bushings at the top of the rear shocks? The bushings that came with my shocks (Bilstein Heavy Duty) are tapered. Should the taper be facing up or down, both for the bushing under the washer and the bushing within the shock tower?

Thanks.

Check how they seat best on the body, there is an indent, I think they fit better one way but I don't remember which way. I think the fat goes to the body?

Yup. Fat side contacts the shock mount.
