swaybar bushing installation

[97ss497]

I just installed Eibach front and rear swaybars and have a question regarding which direction the cut in the front sway bar bushing should be facing; front or back? The Eibach directions say both the front and rear swaybar bushing cut's should face to the rear while the GM manual for a 97 camaro says the front swaybar cut should face toward the front and the rear one should face toward the rear. I installed them per the Eibach directions. Any opinions???

I installed my 1LE bars years ago like the GM instructions. The placement seems more uniform because the slit faces away from the lever arm of the bar in both cases.

Any other comments/opinions?

I would call Eibach directly and explain the difference and see what they say. Could be a typo in the directions.
