Is there a right and left Is there a front and rear Tips on clocking the bars on install to get ride height correct. Thanx in advance.

The numbered ends are installed into the transmission cross member--though it doesn't matter as the direction of twist/load is the same either way AS far as clocking, have the lower control arm as low as possible, and the adjusting bolt backed off when you slide in the hex. By removing the upper control arm bumper you can lower the LCA a little further, this often helps.
