    i do not want to hear a comparison or a bash on them. i just want to know if: when i bolt the spacer on the strut can i rotate the entire assembly 180* and insert? the reasoning is that the bolts are now staggered on top and bottom of shock is 90* but if i turn the whole thing, everything lines up. but, the shock is backwards. does it matter? should I just rotate the top hat so the bolts line up instead. thanks in advance.

    Yes you can rotate the shock body. As long as everything lines up your fine, having the logo forward facing or not

    cool, thank you. thats what I figured. would be a pain to twist the top since the spring is putting pressure on it. thanks!!
