Default ***help rear suspension problem***

ok heres the problem i have just did shocks all the way around with dropzone coil overs the shocks are agx. any way my shocks are sticking up through the back of the car like its only on the springs and the shock wont do anything. i can see like 6 inces of the shiny shock part sticking up through there. idk but im guessing that the top shock tops rusted and cuased them to break but i have no idea any help would greatly be aprreciated.

You sure you reinstalled all the correct washers and such?

More than likely #11 was not used that causes that to happen. Well hope this helps.

I would say 11 as well, did that rushing it and it pushed out my bushings like you said.

ok it was 11 thanks guys. i didnt have the part and i was in a hurry so i just got a random set of washers and cut a slit in the bushing and put it above the washer. yea i no this probly isnt a great idea but agiain i was in a hurry. as soon as i did that it handled so much better. before the *** end would just slide out i didnt figure it out untill i was cleaning out my car and opend the trunk.
thanks again
