you're referring to this section right?
Stud bolt (1) above recess (2) must point in direction of
travel (F)!
Coding (3) of spring pad must be seated in recess (2)
opposite stud bolt (1)!

Left is the driver's side, correct. Yes, I'm referring to that section.
You'll also notice that spring pad will get squeezed and try to make it out of its place as you torque down the collar nut. To minimize this, compress the spring as much as safely as possible, and use liberal amounts of soapy water where the spring touches the pad before tightening the nut. If you have a sturdy bench vise you can clamp the strut, it'll make the job go easier.
