Where should I look to find the markings on a set of shocks I bought for my car? They seem to work properly and I have wire brushed them thoroughly and cannot find the markings so I know where they mount.

Boy, its been awhile. But, they are plainly marked and if I remember correctly the markings are either on the mounting face or the bottom edge.

Maybe some repro's don't have these markings.
 
If you can't find ac and cw, look for the position of the notch for mounting the arm
Visualize that the arm bolt is on the back and you can tell which way the arm would be pointing
LF-RR would point same as would LR-RF
 
The markings on the ones I have had apart are on the lug that the mounting bolt hole is .
Also If you have access to an Australia parts book,they list all the shocks arm etc and what and where they fit.
