Sealed front strut pics needed ASAP

I have a 94 V6 with the servicable struts and I am going over to sealed struts. I have the upper strut mounts with bearings, but I know that I am missing something that goes between the upper mount and spring. Its got to be some rubber bushing, but I dont know what. Can someone please chime in and help me out?

Thanks in advance!

I don't have any personal knowlege on this but I often use eBay for helpful pictures. You may find something there that is helpful.

the boot sits inside of the spring but on the outside of the shock. see pic below, it is the black part.

without it, you will prematurely wear your shock due to debri and will also get cracking noises.


the only other part i can think of is the upper spring seat. so it goes spring, shock boot, upper spring seat, bearing, mount, car...

In the order that you jus gave me, it sounds like I need to get the upper spring seat. Does the upper spring seat hold the bearing in place to the upper mount?
