Koni shocks hitting hard???

hey guys I just purchased koni yellow with race springs. but when I go over a bump their hitting really hard. The only thing is they didn't come with any rubber bushing or rubber piece like my old coil over suspensions have came with. Does anyone have any suggestions or is this setup going to hit hard regardless?

I have koni yellows with H&R Race springs and the car rides great!
You might be missing something in your install setup.

If you have a coilover kit or shock/springs, the top hat upper rubber bushings are required.

If someone installed shock/springs without the rubber bushings, they should not be working on cars.

Shock/spring set up on the 3G TL should be just like stock arrangement including the dust boots, bump stops, upper rubber bushings, washers, etc.

Might be the dampening...adjust it to full soft...I've read you are suppost to set them at full soft anyway for the first 500miles.
