Installing springs questions.

Hello,

Im doing install springs and looked thru websites and got a questions.

1. Two 19mm bolts goes knuckle, which side has to be facing front? This is where i get confused...."Lower springs will increase negative camber, so we recommend installing the upper bolt in the factory position, with the arrow facing the middle of the car (top pic). This will offer the least amount of negative camber," from evomoto.com

2. I posted in how to, but didnt get any answer.

Thanks!

The nut goes to the front of the car, the bolt to the back, the top bolt has 2 camver settings, look at the bolt and you will see an arrow stamped on the head, install the top bolt with the arrow pointing inside.
Get an alignment afterwards.
