Strut Replacement Question 700 1989

I want to be sure about the placement of the chamfered (bevelled) washer as I reassemble my strut tower.

I'm using some information from this page. I guess part of the problem is that Abe talks about some things by name where a picture is needed.

Please correct the terms I put to the picture if needed.


At the bottom of the shaft is the bumpstop-boot.


This is the special washer with the bevel that mates up with a bevel on the strut shaft about 2" down from the threads.


This is the bumpstop-boot washer. Note that the bearings are in place.


This is the spring cap.

I want to be sure about the placement of the special washer. Does it go like so (as the picture sequence suggests): the bumpstop-boot, the washer, the bumpstop-boot washer, the spring cap?

Thanks for any help.
