Default Need civic shock pictures

I installed tokico blues on skunk2 lowering springs, but when i dropped my car off the jack stands to see how low it went the rod for the shock pushes up and touches the hood, and dumps my car like a half an inch to the ground. I know im missing a washer but my car had some ghetto *** suspension and it was all hacked together so i cant base what im missing off of them.

these are on a 95 ex civic also.
