Folks: the axle mount location on the spring is a little off center. Does the longer section go to the rear? Thanks in advance!

Yes. The shackle attaches to the end of the spring that is farther from the U-bolts. (this is on the newer, half-elliptic cars....not Bugeyes, MkII Sprites or Mk I Midgets)
