your order looks incorrect as well, usually that dished washer goes on the bottom
2k2 is correct, the photo i took is technically incorrect but really, they're just bushings and it doesn't matter which way they go together. the only reason to make sure you have it right is that it's easier to install with the nub on the bottom. sorry for the confusion.

Here's what stock setup looks like. I know when I took my shocks out, my top bushings/washers disappeared on me. Thanks for the call.

youll be fine, IMO. just put the "nipple" under the shock tower so it feeds through almost.

for what purpose? just put the big washer on the bottom, then the nipple bushing pointing up and then mount the shock into the tower.
