Toe elminators install question

I have the Racing Beat toe elminators, and the instructions do not say how far to press in the inner steel bushing. Should the bottom be flush? Stick out alittle? ...???

In installed some custom eliminator bushings and the inner sleeve was able to slide easily enough to where I didn't worry about it until I put the hub back on the car. I think it sticks out upward toward the trailing arm, but I can't remember. It wasn't a big deal, but if your RB eliminator bushings need to have it set before you put the hub back on (if the sleeve does not move by hand, for example) I would try setting it with the sleeve sticking upward toward the hub. I'm 70% sure that is how it was oriented when I did mine.

Like I said, it's no big deal. If you put it on backwards, just remove it and put it on the right way. The inner bushing has to sit up against the trailing arm (there can be no gap between the hub and trailing arm where it all mounts together).

I found out, it the RBs need to have the smaller diameter end sticking up with the bigger lip on that end flush with the top.. so the bottom wil be sticking out a bit...
