#4 Body Mount question

[Islander]

Just got the new body mount set so that I can mate the body to the frame. The #4 body mount has two pieces of rubber to it. One is called simply a cushion and goes under the frame's #4 mount, the bolt will go up through it. The other is called a cushion assembly. It has a metal side and a rubber side to it with a metal sleeve in the middle where the bolt goes through. I have no idea which way it goes. Does the metal end face the down towards the mount (metal against metal? Not good but what do I know), or does it go against the body (the metal end on the top)?

Islander look into a catalog such as paragon they normally have the detail photos taken from the A.I.M. manual. I also think ZIP has some diagrams on line so you could order parts.

I am not near my car otherwise I could have taken a photo for you
