Yes. You can also tell when looking at the OEM bushings which side the flange should be on. I'm pretty sure there was a write up one this on BCRotary.com, but I don't have the bookmark saved.

I bet a search would have turned that up.

hey guys got a question, i can't seem to get the stupid sleeve/ring thing out for the old dtss bushing. this is all i got left from my new bushings and mounts. just can't seem to get these damn sleeves out. the ones on the diff, subframe and control arms were easy but the dtss ones won't budge. any advice would be greatly appreciated

I used a shop press and my fairly large assortment of sockets; English, Metric and large wheel nut impact sockets.

The DTSS eliminators need to be installed as noted in the picture.
