Default Rebuilding front upper ball joint question on an 85

Hello, I have the 928 motorsports front upper ball joint kit and I have a soft clear plastic ring about 1/4 inch thick and it talks nowhere about this part in the instructions or videos online can anyone advise where it should go ?

I watched this and did not see that part, also I've never seen anything go on that tapered fitting of a Ball Pin, it looks like something that would go inside the Ball Cup?

That looks more like something that fell in the parts bag by mistake. Just give Carl a quick call- he will set you straight.

Thank you Dave, I also did watch that video multiple times and watching very closely to see when he uses that part and he doesn't ! I also sent an email to 928 motorsports to see what he responds with.
