1st Gen Toytec CO's Question

Is it just me, or is something funky happening with the orientation of the bolt on the top plate? Why wouldn't it be oriented the same way (longitudinally) on both coilovers? It's a minor point of concern because I need the coilover to articulate out another 3" to mate with my long travel lower control arm when limping to a shop to have some shock towers bolted in. Any Toytec owners here?

Driver's side - how I think both should look



Passenger side - notice how the bolt is sticking out of of the coil bucket and it doesn't look like the coilover can swivel as far out on the bolt / bushing



Whaddya think?

 

You'll be fine.

Many coilovers cover 1gen Tacoma, 1 gen tundra, 3rd gen T4R, I bet the odd duck there is orientated for another chassis.
