Some advice on rear leaf and shock install Tacoma please

[WildMan]

Got the 6112's situated up front. I'm about to wrap up one leaf spring billstein 560 shock, the shock I'm going to put on the other side didn't come with the bushings/washers.
I'm not sure if the ones coming off my old rear shocks were once the same bushings or not.

I'm thinking of just wrapping it up with one of rear shocks not replaced until I get the bushings for it.

That shouldn't be a problem right? I know I needed new shocks for more down travel with the new springs, but the old one should be a fine placeholder until I get the new ones parts right?

Any knowledge or help appreciated.

You talking about a few miles or 100s?
Probably wear the tires funny, you are getting an alignment when finished?

Yeh getting aligned soon. Cancelled the one today bc I wasn't sure I'd make it in time. I don't plan on driving it much till alignment (probably tomorrow).

I ended up just putting the old shocks back on the one side. Shouldn't be there too long.
