    Part number text is right side up /
    The end with the smaller diameter (tapered) typically faces downward /

    I want to know if there is an insulator direction.

    The direction of the insulator is dictated by the hole in the lower arm and the end of the spring coil /
    If the tab isn't in the hole, or the coil isn't against the rubber stop, the installation is incorrect /
