Bilsteins

Got a set of Bilstein shocks for Christmas. They are the right part# for my '03 F-350. The eyes are switched- the top is straight and has a bushing, and the bottom has no bushing and the bushing is hourglass shaped, so you can't switch them. The shocks will fit only upside down, and the decals are on them upside down (dust cover on the bottom). Anybody know whats up with these?

That is the way The Bilsteins are made to go on. The shock body at the top and the rod and shock boot at the bottom.

So I heard from Bilstein, finally. What a job putting the bushings back in!
