Umi caster camber plate shaft bushing?

Just got my umi caster camber plates today went to install them and there is a bushing insert that goes into the spherical bearing . The directions don’t say whether it is inserted from the top down or from the underside of the bearing ? Any help is appreciated

Re: Umi caster camber plate shaft bushing?

Is it a bushing or just a spacer? Spacers usually go on top (under the nut).Some set-ups need a bushing due to the strut being too small dia for the bearing.If thats your case i would guess the bushing goes in from the bottom.Pics help.

Definitely bushings, different sizes too.I'm guessing depending on the strut dia.Which one you use will depend on the strut.Some don't even need the bushing, but those certainly look like they'd go on from the bottom.
