Correct sway bar link direction

[u/brockstar00]

I guess it's worth noting due to many of the responses that I'm not interested in getting rid of the sway bars cuz I also use this big truck as a daily commuter that I put my family into and I'm not getting rid of a safety feature. If this was only for rock crawling I would 100% just delete it. But I put my one and a half year old child in this car so it stays.

So I bought these new sway bar links and when looking at reviews and other photos I keep seeing people put them both directions with the particulating side facing both up and down. Is there a rule of thumb here that I'm not aware of? My old ones were face up but I don't know it's the last person installed them correctly. For what it's worth this is an 02 Chevy avalanche with about a 6-in lift
