i'd allways fit then with the solid material faceing forwards and backwards,  so the buh would effectivly be stiffer under accseloration and deceloration,  unless destrictions specifyed otherwise.

all the VW's have gone bar 1.

but due to the shape of the wishbone and position of the wheel , under acceleration and braking the force is gonna be on the sides of the bush surely, not the front/rear
