Can somebody confirm this? steering linkage orientation

72 Dodge Demon

Took apart my steering linkage to get it painted and powdercoated and I can't exactly remember the orientation.

I was originally using the /6 k member that came with the car and a 73+ steering linkage and gear box. I swapped it out with a 68-72 k member from a 69 dart. I can still use the 73+ linkage right (pitman, idler, centerlink)?

If yes, When installing the pitman and idler arms on the 73+ linkage, do the joints point up or point down?

Question 1 = yes, question 2 = the nuts should point down.

thanks I got it now. Didn't realize I was using the earlier idler arm with the 73+ linkage and nothing was lining up with each other!
