the back isn't supposed to be that low w/ road magnet springs.

the front isn't supposed to stay that high, either.

i think you might've gotten the fronts and the rears mixed up.

The flat part of the springs goes on the top portion connecting to the top hats for the left springs that go in the front. As for the rear I don't remember if they have a flat part or not
