Strut Mount Question

Hello all, i have a question regarding my strut mounts. My factory rubber mounts are on their last legs, one of them is visibly torn, so i ordered some new ones from Founders Performance. They came today and i'm a little concerned. They each came in two pieces, the plate and a small metal piece with the bearing in the middle of it. The bearings are noticably tilted, one more than the other, and not straight up and down. I've never ordered strut mounts before, should they be like this or did i get a faulty pair?

Re: Strut Mount Question

The spherical bearings move, just put the strut through and bolt them up. Should be fine.
