I screwed it up myself. Unfortunately it will bolt up upsidedown. The dead giveaway is the slight curve. Install it so you have more clearance as opposed to less.

Just re-read that response, and it may not make sense intil after you've done it. Let me say if you bolt it up both ways at the bushings, one way will definitely look easier than the other in terms of bolting up the end links. The easier one is the right one.
