Looks correct as far as being on the proper side. Are those arms original or aftermarket? Just wondering. The slot opening may make a difference. Those rubber bumpers should be a pita somewhat to get them installed. If they go in rather easily, there could be treachery afoot.
Those are stock replacement arms. I have to use pliers to pull them thru the slot. And they are already lubricated with some type of oil to make installation easier. The only other thing is that I haven't tightened the control arm to frame bolts down yet where the shims go.

Can you post a picture of one installed on your control arm?
I used stock replacement control arms and that style bump stop for my Regal and they did not pull through easily

I can install them when I jack up there control arm but when I let the jack down the bumper slides back towards the firewall and pops out.
