Convertible Top Cylinder Mounting

Although I've been using this site this is my fist post. I'm toward the end of a resotration and have the following question.

Can one of you knowledgeable folks tell me the correct mounting of the top cylinder to the top frame. There are two bushings per side and two folding washers. Do the folding washers go between the bushing and the frame or on the outside of the frame? Here are my options.

Method One: bolt, washer, top frame, bushing, top cylinder, bushing, top frame, washer, nut.

Method Two: bolt, top frame, washer, bushing, top cylinder, bushing, washer, top frame, nut.

Thanks,
Doug M.
