Mine had two pieces that were shapped differently. The piece that is flat on both dides goes on the frame and the one with the rounded top goes on top

Of course, the #4s are different (at least on the cars I've seen) - the cone-shaped piece goes in between the frame and body if the mount plate is in good shape. If it's marginal (like mine), use the hockey-puck shaped piece on top of the plate and very large washers to shim the gap.
