i bought some run of the mill monroe shocks and i was about to install when i figured out that the top bolt installation looked different than the factory one. the factory had a 1 saucer washer and one rubber bushing. these came with 2 saucers and 2 rubber bushings for each top part. how am i supposed to assemble these? also how tight do i tighten the nut down after i get it on there?

One washer and rubber bushing goes under the top mount and the other goes on top of the top mount(all you are looking at is the top bushing and washer. When you remove the old shock, make sure the old bushings aren't stuck. Stick a washer, then a bushing on top of the shock. Put the shock though the hole and install the bushing then washer, then the nut. Tighten until they sqeeze the bushing a bit.
