If your shocks are blown do you think swapping springs is gonna help? Think about it dude. Plus everytime i've ever blown a shock the ride height stays the same but the ride quailty suffers. Knowing some of your posts i'd say you put it back together wrong. Go back and compare sides and double check your work. Check for any fluid around the struts.

Jack the car up and see if you can move the wheel like the wheel bearing is out. If it is you'll need to buy a new hub since they are not able to be serviced. If I were you I would seriously take it to a shop and have them look at it and do the work, this may be out of your hands.
