Interesting question, mine are also "upside down" as is every other Kirkham that I have pictures of. Could be they don't fit the other way, I haven't tried. Maybe someone from KMS could enlighten us.
When I setup the rear on my car I ran out of adjustment when I was trying to get rid of the bump steer. I could address the bump steer, but I ended up with positive camber. I spoke to Dave Cindrich and he made me a set of new "top hats" for the upper wishbone that allowed me to position the inner end further forward. I was then able to get the rear bump steer to within 0.01" per inch of wheel travel all of which was in the same and right direction, whilst also maintaining the correct camber.
Interestingly, the results from one side to the other were within single digit thous' which I think speaks volumes for the quality and accuracy of manufacture.
