i think you have those two backwards....

the pair with the fork already on them go on the rear.

the pair that sit into the factory fork that go around the axle, go up front.


clearer now?

Yeah, what he said. If you need any help with the install let me know. My didn't come with directions so it was a bit odd, a couple of suggesions..

1 - Cut off the two smallest rings in the bump stop.
2 - Use this order when installing your top mount (from top to bottom: Install starting from the bottom.)

:Nut
:Gold washer
:Bushing - big side down (bushing tube will connect the two bushings)
:Top mount
:Bushing - Big side up
:silver tapered washer
:bump stop

Hope that makes sense. If the ride feels bouncy, make sure that you aren't TO low, if you are two low then you have no suspension travel and are bouncing off of the bump stop.
