You should have the upright installed and the coilover hanging from the tower with the spring perch loosened all the way...
1. attach the steel bracket to the coilover bottom loosely
2. raise the suspension to approximate ride height
3. push the steel bracket flush against one face of the upright's strut mount, with the tabs perfectly centered over the hole, find the radial orientation of the slug, mark the upright in a way that makes sense to you
4. then find the best offset combo, bracket leaning forward or rearward, the slug's head on the front or rear of the upright, aim for as much clearance between toe link and axle as possible
5. remove the upright, press in the slug at the correct rotation from the correct side... freezing the slug overnight and using wd40 will help (many uprights go out-of-round, may need a quick buzz with a dremel flapper)
6. reinstall the upright, raise to ride height, loosely bolt everything together and inspect clearance through a range of motion
7. torque everything down or re-adjust as needed
