Default Lowering spring problem

Springs-H&R Lowering Springs Sport Kit. 1.9 drop front and 1.8 rear.
Strut-Koni Adjustables. Yellow if that helps
89 Crx Dx

I installed some h&r lowering springs the other day to get my car a little higher than it was with the ebay coilovers that were installed when I bought it. The rear sits fine, it sits a little higher than before but it looks nice.

However, the front is slammed. It tucks 14's really bad. I checked under and the strut looked like it was too far down in the fork so I moved them up and it looked like it lifted maybe 1/4 inch.

I installed the springs correctly, just like I've done before. I've been told I might have put them in upside down, but I put the letters up like the paper said. Yes, I have the fronts on the front and rears on the rear.


If you have any idea what might be going on please let me know, I need to drive my car again.

Jake

Could it be because there is no bumpstops? I just read through the H&R website and it says to keep them. I think whoever had the car before me removed them when installing the coilovers.


On my struts, the pass. side obviously clicks into the different settings and stops. The driver side keeps spinning, is it broke?
