I won a set of BDS nx2 nitro shocks and have been very happy with them.

Yes there is. On both the front and rear, the mounting arrangement is different between the top and bottom. On the rear, which are the more vulnerable, it may be possible to push the bushing and its associated hardware out of the top and swap it into the bottom. I haven't actually measured for that.
