I ordered all new shocks for my 03 Z71.
Bilstein (24-186643) 5100 for the front. (I do have a 2" level in the front). And Bilstein 24-187237 Rear Shock for the rear.
I changed the front shocks tonight and the dust shroud on one of them is all bunched up.
I think it's just the zip tie that holds it on might be too high. I tried twisting it on the shock absorber but it feels like it might be glued on as well as zip-tied.
So my first question is how do I fix the shroud on the passenger side? (see pics)

Second question - my old shocks that I took off each had a metal spacer that sat between the top of the shock body and the metal lower metal plate that holds the lower rubber washer in place. The new shocks didn't come with the spacer. Should I use the spacer on the new shocks? (see picture of spacer).
