shock mounting question

So I'm in the midst of doing my front end swap and have a quick question on my shock mount.

Do the upper and lower bolts need to be parallel?

Thanks guys, hope to have more pics and info to share soon!

Re: shock mounting question

No, no issue BUT I would recommend you put the bolt in the other way before you weld the mount. Right now you would not be able to remove the bolt if you wanted to remove the shock. Put the nut to the inside.
