I will be paying close attention to how the old ones are mounted when I get this over the grease pit. I need to swap the trans out of that truck currently over it first, and I am getting so old and tired ...


I follow whats written on the part literally - "this side to driveline" is enough for me to orient that side towards the driveshaft. (usually seen on soft disc as it has a specific shock absorbing purpose and wont work backwards)

On ones that dont mention any text like this - I will have to look up if they have an orientation - like some BMWs have.
