Unknown Parts

Anyone know where these go? I just installed Koni Yellows, Steeda Sport Springs, Steeda HD Mounts. These plastic pieces I have no idea where they go or if I even need them.

Lol I'm pretty sure that's what they are. I have the same yellows and Steeda Boss 302 springs...they are not mentioned in the instructions at all.

Pretty sure Koni tells you to slide those onto the strut and they sit at the bottom, not sure what they are for though.

They keep the struts from creaking and popping.

The plastic washers go on between the bump stops and shock body are to protect against the bump stops possibly creating a suction and damage to the top seals in the shocks.
Not sure if they are really needed with the latest Koni seals.
