What is the proper orientation for the GM end links?
Example large end up or down

up down shouldn't matter.......the spacers go on each side of the "heim" so that it can rotate freely......you want to install them so that the link is as perpendicular to the mounts as possible. It really won't make much difference either way.

someone may have a specific answer for you, but there should be a fairly obvious "better" orientation once they are in place.
