bilstein install instructions

Just got my bilsteins in, I'm looking at them and its all in pieces. The spring perch is seperate from the strut body, and the instructions have crappy drawings and no english.

The pictures are showing something being hammered. Does this apply to these struts? How do I assemble this strut?

Use a jack to get the fronts in, not a mallet

Slide the aluminum perch on.

Put the rubber ring on the shock piston.

Hammer the brass cap on.
