u take the ones that fit over your shock, like two each for each shock, it keeps the sleeve from moving around, u slide the sleeve over the rubber o rings

Re: (spooncivic1)

They are necessary when the coilover kit is not designed for a specific application. I wouldn't recommend using the product without them, I don't think you have much of a choice.
