ideally the side with the piggy, should go on the main fram and the piston side on the swing.
but myself [and im sure a few others] have ran several shocks the other way with no noticable differance.

just make sure the piggy back isnt going to catch on anything and snap off when you go through the travel (if youve got a piggy back?)

you'll probably need to swap the shock bushings over to the other ends aswell
