I assume you got the tubes from your local MoCo stealership. Give them a call.

No telling what is normal with everything screwed with the supply chain. I have been getting A LOT of NEW PARTS that are JUNK OUT OF THE BOX.

The holes could have been used for suspending the tubes in the chromium plating tank, that would also account for why they aren't aligned, they won't serve any purpose after the tubes have been chromed.

The two cartridges have different part numbers.

The right damper has holes near the top.
The left damper has holes at the bottom.
