just take some nail polish and draw a line on the car/shock assembly before you take it off/ it will be alot easier to line it up when you reinstall it with the new spings. dont worry about the flush. I had the same problem but after its under load everything will be ok. just make sure you toruqe your bolts correctly

Yup I did that! I was just worried about how the springs sat... it just didnt fit like OEM did so I was worried but I drove the car around and everything is just fine! Thanks!
