The issue was not the fact that it may have not been "all the way up". What I am saying is that the old shock had a longer rod, so that the extra washer would fit. With the blistens, the top washer, as well as the top and bottom rubber washer, all fit correctly. When I added the extra washer from the old shocks (lower washer that was on the old shocks but did not come with the new blistens), the rod was not long enough to add the extra washer and still be able to get the nut on top to grab onto the shock threads.
Kind of confusing to explain, am I describing the issue clearly enough?
