Need help quick!!!!!

I am installing new shocks on my truck I bought bilstiens. I have the old ones off and the new ones on, but there isn't a nut thing on the new shocks like the stock ones had and when i try to tighten them it just spins the shock. What can i do? do i put another nut on the other end? the shocks only came with one nut. any help would be great

thanks, I got it in the top of the rod there is a torx socket. you use that to hold it in place. They should put that in the directions.
