I feel like those are the spacers for the rear shocks.

Edit: Actually.. IDK, they're kind of big. I can't recall washers being in the top hat assembly. I'll pull a picture.

This is the stock assembly and I'm not seeing any washers there.
I think your washers are for #8 and #13

Ya know, that list of coupon codes is absolutely worthless, since we don't know what site they're made for.
