You need those bumpstops to protect the shock from internal damage. If they bottom out, even momentarily, the piston at the end of the shock rod strikes the floating piston that separates the oil from the nitrogen chamber and they will mix. Instant dead shock.I use an impact gun to set the 55 lbs-ft, but I've been doing this for a long time and I know my equipment very well.
You can use a set of channel locks (or big vise grips) to hold the concave washer and torque it to spec.
