What's the correct bushing-washer-nut sequence for the upper mount on the front shocks, assuming there's two bushings, two washers, and one nut.
Is it: bushing->washer->shock mount->washer->bushing->nut
or
washer->bushing->shock mount->bushing->washer->nut
or something else?
I would think the bushings should be against the shock mount, but the bushings atleast the Rancho supplied ones look too small for the shock mount hole, like they might go through them. On the other hand it looks like it would be hard to torque the nut against the bushing and not send the nut through the middle of the bushing... a washer would keep that from happening.
