Default Something wrong with my shocks?

I got some brand new tokico shocks. On the bottom end of the shock there is a cup that holds the spring. Is there supposed to be a bushing in between the shock and the metal cup?

If you are talking about the front stut setup then I don't think so. There wasnt anything on my car when I changed my shocks and stuts out. Hope that helps you.

If you're talking about the hard plastic doo-dad that fits on the end of your spring and makes it "flat", so it can have a flat surface against the shock perch (the cup), then yes, you need that. Just re-use the stock one when you pull the old shocks apart.
