Question what is the correct bushing configuration when installing new konis? Took my shocks out and didn't look and now i'm curious I think it is one bushing under the rear perch and one on top with the car sheet metal in between.

ok cool I have this nasty squeak and Im thinking its the bushings. When installing the shock how tight do you make the top of the shock? Is the bushing compressed?

What I did with mine was remove the top bushing on each side and put some synthetic grease around the shock shaft right where it comes through the sheet metal. Re-install the top bushing and tighten it down until it just starts to bulge;then wipe up any excess grease.
