Shock problem!! HELP!!
Shock problem!! HELP!! Ok, so today i decide to do the heater hose mod. (Put heater hose over the first coil of rear springs). Everything goes well until i torque the big nut that goes on the shock stud. SNAP the stud snaps with the bolt inside of it. 
So then i go to remove my rear left bilstein shock i put whatever size allen wrench inside the upper strut hole to stop it from moving while i loosen the nut. SNAP the Allen wrench splits the strut. So then i get out my dremel and grind the strut and remove it. I'm just going to go ahead and order a new rear shock the only question i have is do new shocks (bilsteins) include the upper little nut ??? I included a pic of what nut im talking about.
Thanks

This would fit in suspension, not external engine. But to answer your question and not sound like a dick, yes it should come with the nut, rubber spacer and all that fun stuff. If it doesn't, you got f***ed.
