What exactly are you having trouble with? If ask a more specific question someone here should be able to help you.

Do you have the old shocks/ struts removed? Are you having trouble with the front or rear?

well the isue are the fronts i pay a shop to installed it but something is wrong the shock is coming up to much and everytime the coil suspense is moving up and down and making a noise
(the part that move is art the top on top of the plate that hold the 3 screws)

I'll bet the shop installed them incorrectly and left out a very important washer. Check out this thread on clubfrontier.org and pay attention to post #11 with installation instructions from Bilstein...

Make sure everything is tight and bolts torqued to spec. If you're not comfortable doing that take it back to the shop that installed them.
