Default Upright 1 & 2 position

Hi
Can anyone tell tell me if the bottom outer edge of U1 should line up with the outer edge of br7. On some pictures some have it set back like on the book drawings and others have it flush. I'm just a bit concerned that it could lead to problems when mounting the suspension brackets later on if this is put in the wrong place. looking at the mx5 guide from Saturn one of the photos shows it flush so as we are building an mx5 based car we have put ours flush for now.
I may make my suspension brackets next so i can see whats what.

The amendment to the book from Haynes states

“U1 and U2 should be fixed next, noting that they are placed square to rail BR7 at the bottom.
The top front corner is aligned with the outside of the rails TR1/TR2.”

Many thanks

Andy
