Is the coilover mounted upside-down?

Yh I gathered that much but just looks like the coilover is upside down, might have been the only way they could fit it in

At this time the torsion bars it's working like the secondary spring of a dual rate set up.....the main spring it's 400 lb and the torsion bar it's working about 1/4 of the strength.
May be with another coilover on the tower we throw the bars.
