Default I have a prob with my suspension on my Q45

Ok guys I am putting KYB SRs and Tein springs on my Y33 and Im having some issues. First off the front cylinders are smaller then the strut caseing. I dont know if I was sent the wrong the ones. To fix that in the mean time I got galvanized steel washers to fill the gap that was causing the cylinders to move up and down in the casing. So after I installed them with the springs and took it for a test drive I heard a clunking noise coming from the front set. So I put it back on the lift and found that the springs are too small for the struts so when I hit a bump they shift up and down. So now I have no idea how to fix this so I need help from you guys big time. Thanks.
