I don't think it matters to much as the bush wants to twist more rather than compress. I put mine in at 12 & 6.

It's 12 and 6 on an 80 series, so i'd guess its the same as a nissan. I think it's that way to reduce binding/tearing, and longetivity of the rubber

on a nissan it is 12 and 6 or the vehicle's driving will suffer under braking.
