Yes they mount with the dust boot on top. Mine took a little playing with to get them in but thats the only way they fit with mine. I had 2" blocks when I put mine in so maybe that made it easier but just bolt them in on top first and then you should just be able to push them in with your hands to compress them far enough to line up the bottom part with the mounting bracket. One of mine didn't have the green strap and thats what I did.
