Default About to install my Koni's.. Just a couple questions

Do I have everything setup the right way as shown in the pictures?



Sorry for the blurry image, it was taken with my cell phone.

There were 6 nuts, 2 had a blue lining on the inside.

1) Am I right with placing these on the front shocks?
2) Are there any special ways I should put the two nuts on top of the rear?
3) I'm guessing the large flat washer goes on the front, and whatever I pull off the old decarbons will sit on top of that?

4) Will I be using anything else from the stock shocks?

Sorry for the all the newb questions. This is my first time doing this.

It'll be fairly strait forward and self-explanatory once you get in there and do it. You have it set up correctly from what i can see in the pics. For the rear, just tighten down the first nut so that the rubber portion is slightly compressed, then just hand tighten the other nut on top.

Two nuts go together as shown. They are jam nuts. The one nut holds the other in place.
