I confirmed with Fastway that on their trunnion bars the weight capacity is engraved on the bars themselves. The trunnion bars on the # FA92-00-0450 should be pointed up when installed which should give you your directional indicator. I've included this installation video is a great resource to walk through step by step the installation process should you have other questions along the way.
