Hello all.

I just finished installing some Bilstein HD shocks all the way around
and have a quick question regrading the fronts. On the front shocks
there was a metal "washer" that was around 3/8" thick that fit on the
shaft. When installing the shocks, this piece wouldn't fit up into the
shock protector that was in there, so I left it out. Was there a
reason for the part and did I do it improperly?

You can see one of them sitting right below the nut if you visit http://www.eshocks.com/images/Bilstein/B46-0820-H0.JPG

Thanks!
