Assembly Order of GC's and KYB's
Finally all of my parts are coming on Friday. I have never installed coil overs and i think i have an idea of the order.

Front.
Start with the shock:
Add bump stop:
Add coil over sleeve and bottom perch:
Add coil:
Add top perch:
This is where i am a little confused, i was told that i should use 2 end link bushings per shock but i dont really know where they go.
Add end link bushing:?
Add Cusco Camber Plate:
Add top nut:

Rear.
Start with shock:
Add bump stop:
Add coil over sleeve and bottom perch:
Add coil:
Add top perch:
This is where i am a little confused, i was told that i should use 2 end link bushings per shock but i dont really know where they go.
Add end link bushing:?
Add ME rear mount:
Add top nut:

So i am not sure where the second end link bushing goes. I dont have all of the parts so its hard for me to visualize it all together. The camber plates will be here on Fri, otherwise i have the rest. I can take pics if it will help. I read a couple other threads on the other forum but it never shows a complete build up.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thank you

I did some more searching and found this thread. It helps but not totally.

So it looks like i would put the end link bushings between the top shock mount and the mounting plate and on top of the mounting plate? is this correct? I feel like an idiot.

Now i found this thread again. I think i got it now but can anyone confirm?

Strut
coil mount
bump stop
upper mount
end link bushing
mounting plate
end link bushing
nut

Am i missing anything? Do i need to use the thrust washer still?
