Default Another coilover question that the suspension forum ignores... Help me out?

Hey guys,
This is a real newb question but I still need some help. I bought the underground racing coilover sleeves for my car (91 CRX Si). When I slide the kif over the tokico 5way shock I have here to replace the blown one the sleev slides all over the place, an O-ring helps but not all the way and then they have these little metal peices that fit on the bottom of the sleep that help even more, however there are only 2 of those. Is there a way to snug the sleeves against the shock other than duct tape (read that on nissan forum and it sort of scared me lol) I appreciate the help guys, you've never let me down before.

they are the same things as the skunk2 coilovers or omnipowers, one of the guys at my school uses the same ones on his nationally competitive Auto-x Honda hatch so I don't think they are total peices of junk, I'm just looking for advice, thanks guys

I had my machinist make up some aluminum lower perches and an upper ring that spaces it out perfectly. I think he charged me about $50 for the 8 pieces in total. I have some pics if you are interested.
