Default Energy suspension master kit, need help with what bushing goes where

So i bought the energy suspension master kit and im in the process of installing it. There was one package that has a few cupped washer and etc but no instructions on that package, I think that package is for the front end link. My question is i know where the front sway bar is but where the hell do all those little bushing and washer go? And where do i install the steering rack bushing? If anyone have pictures it would help a whole lot. This is for a dc2 and i believe the item # is 16.8104. For the LCA i already got the bushings out and i'm going to cut the inner sleeve out tomorrow and install the ES bushings. Is there anything to look out for when installing the kit or be cautious on?

I believe those cups are for the ball joints.. Most useless things. They trap dirt and aren't even sealed. I don't get the point of them. To make things worse, when you tighten the ball joints all the grease comes out of it.

He's talking about one small part of the kit.

Those appear to be steering rack mount bushings.
