Default HELP:problem after installing skunk2 adjustable springs w/kybgr2

finished installing all four skunk2 adjustable springs w/kyb gr2, the front came out perfect but the back is just way to unacceptable, theres a 3 finger gap on it. and if you look under the fender wells the springs are not even all the way up where the upper rubber pillow mounts are at and the adjustable part of the springs are already all the way down to the cups of the strut, so if anybody can help me with this i double check the springs already i got the right springs just like what says on the instruction manual. so pls if theres someone that can help me with this.

will the trailing arm bushing cause any problem as well. let me know guys

So what you're saying is that the rear of the car is not even being supported by the springs? I'm betting you still have the metal dust cover on the shocks. You can't use them with adjustable-height coilover springs, and could be part of the problem.
