Default suspension problem

i'm putting my springs on, and i'm having trouble with the rear ones, when i put them on before, the car sat higher thanstock

the thread on the shock won't fit all the way through the spring, and when i tried compressing the spring to make them fit, the car didn't sit right.
and yes, the springs are for my car, no,i didn't install the rear ones on the front and the front ones on the rear.....i'm just STUMPED, please help

It looks like u put the front springs in rear, cuz they look thick. Plus u may need a spring compressor

you shoudl check the bumpstop because you might have to cut it in half, also the dust boot might need to be removed or modified.
