What exactly are those for? I never got them with my Konis, but I've seen them on other installs.

are you talking about the thin white plastic ring/bump stop that goes under the stock bump stop to prevent the internals from breaking in case the shock is bottomed out? If thats what you need pm me I have a bunch

actually, i think they are there so that the seals don't blow.
iirc, the split is there to let air escape or enter when the bumpstop is compressed on the shock housing.
w/o the packer, the bumpstop can seal against the shock and create pressure or vacuum depending on compression or rebound which could blow seal or introduce air or suck out oil, or something like that.
