Those rubber things are your bushings.

The bushings could be for the rear-most front lower A-arm bushing or the rear upper arms. Or the rear trailing arm..

lmaooo that made me laugh... okay the o rings go over your shock body. use one for bottom and then slip on the sleeve. then put another ring down the strut and tuck it under the sleeve. tighten down the allen screws on the sleeve.. and voila.. the flat rubber rings go on the collar and one on the top hat. but i never use those aluminum top hats they give you i just toss em.

i heard that if u dont have the bump stop its going to blow your SHOCK faster but i cut my bump stops in half so it can be little bit lower. If you dont care and want to be low then take out the bump stop

won't it be squeeky and bumpy without the bumpSTOP. i'm sure this topic was covered dozens of time. check the archives. don't waste perfectly good shocks just to have it look cool, unless you have money like that.

i always leave the oem rubber in the top hat. and never use that aluminum disc they supply in the coilover kit. cut bump stops is okay though imo
