i think youare missing a couple rubber pieces as well as the washers. i could be wrong though.

NICE drawings

Yes, they should go on exactly as the old ones..... call your supplier and ask him if:
You are supposed to reuse 1/2 of your bushings and the nuts
or .... you were mistakenly shorted the rest of the install bushings and hardware? Let us know who it is and what they say

Ok issue resolved

attached drawing is how it should be.

So i have to order two more bushing kits

Thanx East Coast Custom Carts

Problem is now the shocks fully extended are not long enough to reach due to the fact i put on HD leaf springs. So off to Ace Hardware to get some threaded couplers and bolts
