Default CKS true coilovers help

I have 0 experience with coilovers but I had a shop install the full set on my car more than a year ago. I had no idea why the rear was riding so rough until recently.

I went under and also realized the setup looked very much like the divorced setup it had prior, anyways It seems that the shocks have been leaking but were at least CKS shocks. The top mount above the shock has no adjustability plate on it either.

Now my question is did I order the wrong thing or am I misunderstanding what it is that I’m looking at? At the least how can I improve the ride quality with what I have unless I have to completely replace the shock.
