[V8] Front Shock Replacement parts

[S_Matus]

No, aside from the top nut and a hardened spacer ring.  The box was void of any additional copmponents.  Even the instructions are picture to picture with little process text at all. Good thing I have a Koni catalog that includes the install/adjustment procedures.
 
The family album shows many versions of this strut install, so Koni just supplies the insert.  
 
I just wondered if anyone has used aftermarket bumpstops?

I thought the konis might have come with a couple other new parts
included -- dust boot, etc.?
