question about rear shocks
when replacing the rear shocks do you need that to put that back nut on the bottom bolt or does the screw just tighten down

There is no back nut. Just tighten them down well and you are good to go! Make sure you get the bolt started by hand. I almost cross-threaded one of mine because I didn't take that precaution.
