strut rod bushing
alright, this may be a dumb question but which way should the washers face on the strut rod bushings?
the washers are dished kinda like a bowl and i was wonderin if the dish should face the rubber bushing or if the dished part should face away from the bushing
basically if you were lookin at it from the side should it look like this )oo(
or like this (oo)
or does it even matter?

RE: strut rod bushing
According to the shop manual the washers cup the bushings (0l0). Washers always cup the bushings. In fact, I've never seen any bushing that was the other way. The cup is probably supposed to contain the bushing during compression.
