Default C3 lower camber rod-shock bolt question

Is there a left and right position for the lower shock and camber rod bolt? I removed mine and didn’t mark them.

I can only answer yes. I cannot identify which is which though, sorry Maybe you can use the numbers on there to tell right from left.......

Notice the flat on the shaft and the orientation of the mount.

Looks like the flat side where its threaded is on bottom in your picture. The spindle also has a flat area, you will see on the backside bottom. Heres a pic of mine if it helps when lookng at the shock mount you can see the flat area.

So the shock bolts point toward the outside of the vehicle?
