Default Help with progressive 412 install

ok....I got the shocks today and for the most part put them on...lol. I do have a couple questions for those of who who have done this before. In the first two pictures, you'll notice that in the yellow circles one side has (I don't know what you call it) the chrome shaft showing and the other side does not. Why is this? If you look at the blue circles, you can see that they're both adjusted the same. I checked by turning the shocks as well. Besides, if you turn them, them they go up from the bottom and the chrome shaft doesn't move.

In the third picture, the nut and bolt assembly that goes through there....should that be the same on boith sides of the bike and is that on there right? It seems like when I took it off of the left hand side of the bike (the one in the picture), it was flipped so that the nut in the red circle was facing the other way. Might be wrong, but want to make sure.

Lastly, does anyone know the part number for an 05 Dyna SUperglide for this? I cracked it when I was taking it off

Thanks a million,

Mike

After a closer look now that it's light out, the rubber piece and washer has slid down. Is there an easy way to push it back up. I tried to push it up, but it's on there pretty tight and don't want to tear it. Still would like to have the part number for the shock cover. Thanks,

Mike
