Mounting rear coil over shock

Relocaqtiing shock mounts for coil overs in rear of truck. At this poing I can mount them at back of trailing arm amd out side of frame with bolt abover top of frame. Idea is give me most travel can get shock almost straight up and down with very slight angle in. Guessing all of those will give very efficient set up.

Only thing I have question about is mounting points for shock. Bottom mount bolts side to side parrallel to frame oir front to rear. Meaning bolts 90* to each other but should be corredct for rotation during movement. All I have seen run pretty much same top and bottom.

Is the different directional miunts a problem? I casn rework if so but as is would be strongest mounting. Problem or good to go?
