I am building the Bronco Buffalo. So far, I have the suspension almost complete (a fun and challenging build so far..patience is a virtue). And when I got to this part, it hit me that something appears to be missing (and I skipped ahead in the instructions....they're not added later); there are no shock absorbers that I can see in the suspension system. I'd be amazed that Bronco missed that key a detail, and I feel like I'm missing something; is this correct and how does the real vehicle function without them?

That suspension and it's service does not require shocks.
Here's a good build blog started and the areas that need addressing:
