Default Rear Shock Replacement - additional parts needed?

Hi all,
I plan on replacing my shocks soon. I bought a set of AC Delco replacements.
Do I need any additional hardware for the rears? Rubber grommets? Do I use the original washers?
Any advice is appreciated.

The bushings should come with your new pair of shocks.

Thanks! I just wanted to be sure.
So it's just the pre-installed bushing. No "inner" washer, the shock, retaining washer, lock washer and nut.

Just did this myself a month ago. Reused the original washers, nut, etc.
