Default Help...I noticed I'm missing some parts

I purchased my 4" Superlift a few weeks back from a friend of mine used...
Going through my lift and realized I am missing a rear track bar brace to go with the bracket, so I ordered it, no problems...BUT, I started to check my other parts in the kit.

What is a "compression travel pad spacer???" Is this a fancy way of saying bumpstops or am I way off? I guess I'm so confused because when Superlift listed these parts, there are a bunch of bolts, nuts, washers, etc. to go with them.

Here's a picture of all the random parts I have.

(plus shocks, springs, and disconnects)

A list of the parts can be seen here --> http://www.superlift.com/instructions/5704.pdf

Does anyone have pictures of Superlift part # 55-15-5704 and #66-27-5707? (These are the part numbers for the front and rear compression travel pad spacer)

I am pretty new to lifting, etc. but want to make sure everything I need is here. Thanks for the help.

I think that is tho silver things under your bumpstops in the photo. See those washers that are not complete circles? Do yourself a favor and throw those and that bolts that go with them in the trash and get some teraflex adj. front lower control arms.

Looks like you have front and rear upper bumpstops, but only one set of lowers. (think those are the front lowers?) Flex it after the install and see if you even need the rear lowers.

providing you have the front adjustable trac bar and springs it looks complete to me. You have all the parts you need from what I can see, you only need two compression stops which...yes, are those aluminum pucks you have, and they go on the front spring mounts....toss those cam bolts

Awesome, so everything should be fine??? I was just a little confused because the instructions list front and rear compression dampers. I assumed thats what those aluminum pucks were because there is a picture in the instructions of how they fit into the lower coil seat, but no pics of the rears. It does say to replace the rears, but it should be fine with just the stock dampers, right?

Picture (attached) that I downloaded from Superlift website shows four cylindrical shape dampers, but when I received the kit the printed instructions showed different rear dampers and those were mounted by two screws.

Sorry, I just read your note below your picture; okay your kit is complete except for rear dampers.

So at the very least, I think I'm missing 55 15 5704 and the associated hardware...hopefully thats all I need, but thanks for the pics, that cleared up a lot
