Default Help, my car is higher

I just installed my two rear springs and they actually raised the car!!!!! I don't know what I did wrong, I did it by the book using bseries.net and my helms manual. Someone please help me. I made sure I tightened the all the bolts with the weight of the car (raising the lower arm with the car's weight on it). I'm going mad!!!

perhaps you installed the front springs on the back
or you just need to release the parking brake

They are the right springs because I matched them and the parking release brake was off, I drove it around the block, and it was bouncy in the back. I can't figure it out. I know you're supposed to raise the suspension until its off the jack stands. Do you think I didn't compress it enough? I think it is since it's not loose in there.
