I realize this is counter to accepted practice in the seal industry but go argue with Kokomo. john, i should have stated all the ones i have replaced "were installed as the way they were removed from any of the valve bodies i have worked on", then added, "i have only done maybe around 50-75 valve bodies". you are WAY MORE EXPERIANCED than i, so i take your word as the "GOSPEL" ! however, in the monroe book, page #170 [instructions on installing a TF-2 kit] , the 2nd picture at the top shows the seal installed as per the first pic in this thread. so now, . i guess maybe it really doesn't matter ? i have not had any leakers doing it the the wrong way so ??
