Losi shocks don't use rod end/pivot balls at the top, the aluminum body is not machined to accept one. They come with a tapered plastic spacer, but I have seen people use short pieces fuel line too.

Check your LHS.... seems that most Losi shocks use all the same parts.

Im running them on my Axial and I use the rubber spacers from my Axial shocks. There about the same shape as the Losi's but all rubber, a washer would work too.
