Default 98 civic ex - Issue with Function /form type 2 coilovers

I bought 98 civic ex with the above mentioned coilovers , and I hit a pretty substantial bump in the road and the rod coming out the top of the coilovers is extended out, I took the tire off checked every underneath and everything is fine, tried to tighten the nut thinking maybe it just ed worked it's way loose, but I can't get it , any help would be appreciated, pictures are attached. Thanks.

That bushing is ripped. There should be a washer under it to keep that from happening.

I see... yea the other half of the bushing and the washer is on the rod underneath, they're hanging loosely, so that is where my problem is at,thanks
