Okay, received my kit today and I am sorely confused on one thing. The Bilstein front struts say NO bumpstop is needed since the strut already has one (no , it has a blue boot but no stop underneath)

The Eibach springs it comes with say take off the old , slide it in the new SUPPLIED boot and place on the strut. So I did...it sits above the blue boot and below the shock tower mount....Have not torqued down yet because IS THIS RIGHT ? I have the ford racing bumpstop kit (I know I need the rears) but this is conflicting


HELP !!!
