Default dobinson front and rear shock/strut bushing order

On the front strut it comes with washer, bushing, washer, bushing, washer, nut. The top mount I bought has a bushing underneath that goes through the top. I saw a diagram on the dobinson website but I'm still confused, if I understand correctly. It looks like washer, bushing from strut, washer, bushing from top mount, top mount then bushing from strut, then washer and nut. If that is correct, that essentially means two bushings underneath of the top mount. Or, do I actually remove the bushing from the bottom bushing from the strut and do washer, top mount bushing, then top mount, then bushing and washer?

How does rear order go?

We need a picture or a link to the setup you bought. Can’t picture what you are referring to in my head.
