did you lock them in. just did that on my 94 civic. noticed lock in to the struts. they sit in a groove. luckily i noticed before we got done and fixed it. check to see if there sitting in the groove. you might have to pull it apart agian. hope this helps

is it a coilover set or just springs. if its a coilover set there should be gaskets that go on the strut and hold the adjustment pice in place. the spring then sits in a groove like the person said before me. if its a spring make sure the spring is set correctly on the base support for the spring on the strut and the groove at the top. if that doesnt work try turning the spring so that the end of it is not facing out
