I am installing my torsion bars after frame and suspension was painted.

I know they are side specific, marking on bars is 851 with arrow swooping counter clockwise and 852 with arrow swooping clockwise. Marking is only on one end. Which side is which? Does the number side go forward or rear?

Thanks for the help. I have checked the shop manual section 3 and I do not see it there. But it does say they are specific to one side one direction.
