Default Please help ASAP, rancho shock install

I bought a pair of rancho rs5008 shocks because I just installed 2.5" coil spacers and I was told that they would be a direct replacement for the front shocks on my '99 1500. My problem is the new shocks have loops on both ends, whereas the stock shocks had a loop on the axle and a straight bolt on the top to go through the shock tower. Is there some way to make the rancho shocks work? What am I missing here? Thanks

I don't think your missing a thing but the guy that sold them to you might be missing a few brain cells lol, take them back and get the right ones.
