I don't follow. Sounds like you are worrying that the links will be in compression rather than tension. Regardless, of which way you orient them, one side will be in tension and one in compression as the car leans, so no way to avoid compression at times. BTW, my 65 C-body attaches the link to the strut rod, just fwd of the LCA. That is my plan for my A-bodies, no tab-welding to fuss with.
