Not Ranked
Another clarification
ASSUMING that the assembly photo is CORRECT, what Gman said does fits with the photo of the complete assembly.
But,.....for these brackets to be passenger side brackets the ears have to be away from the shock tower and the control arm has to attach to the side of the ears which is away from the engine.
I just now received an email from Don Scott which read:
"Thomas, the bracket mounts with the rectangular side down, the high side of the bracket goes to the front. The arm mounts to the inside of the bracket towards the center of the car. Everything is the same as the picture, tube_arms.jpg."
The key is "the arm mounts to the inside of the bracket towards the center of the car."
That fits with the photo.
What it does not say is:
The clarification is (as the photo shows, not so clearly):
that the bracket ears have to be up against the shock tower and the control arm is attached to the ears on the engine side of the ears.
This means that the photos two brackets I have are both for the driver's side.
The taller ears toward the front of the car and the shorter ears toward the rear of the car, I believe has been established as a firm given. Seem that everyone agrees with that part.

Reason: I can get so confused....had to rethink all of it.
