Do the front sway bar drop links ('74) have a top and bottom or doesn't it matter which way they are installed? My links seem to have a very slight curve at one end (not perfectly straight) that might be from wear, or is it the way they're made?

I also thought the rod came out of the cylindrical end (that holds the bushing) at an angle of some sorts. Not "perfectly" straight.

I'm away from the car right now but I could check later.

The theory (if I recall) is the drop link angles slightly away from the body down to the attachment on the a-arm.

So the angled end of the link is at the top??
