Default Re: changed the 'worn out' rear shocks to KYB. Still rides like an old pickup truck

The issue is the installation of the shocks.

The question is: Can someone advise on the installation sequence of the hardware.

Currently I have rubber on the underside of the rear shock where the pin part stars to insert into the car.

Inside - Rubber, washer nut. I re-used the washer and locking nut.
To answer your question; the order of installation should be in reference to the top pin, metal washer first rubber grommet second insert through the car body then rubber grommet then metal washer then nut.
