Does the grease exit holes in the pins face up or down? I removed my pins and didn't pay attention to their position. I'm thinking that they're supposed to face down.

Thanks in advance.

Mine face down on the LA524 so I would think that yours would also.

Don't matter at all in reality. The pins rotate in actual use anyway.

Point 'em down so water will leak out, not in.

It doesn't matter as most there is a grove that the grease travels around inside the bushing.
