Default Koni Adjustment problem

I installed the strano springs and koni shocks yesterday and on the passenger side i spent almost a half hour trying to place the spring to where i can still reach the adjuster but when installed the coil spring gets in the way. The drivers side is perfect as i can reach it with that side jacked up. Is this a common problem or did i not do something right? Other then that little setback everything is great ride is nice very little body roll. Got the umi on car adjustable panhard bar on and centered the rear.

It's a tight squeeze on mine but it's doable and not very hard. I use a real little "L" shaped wrench and I go half way with the short end and then the other half of the way with the long end. If I get it jacked up just right I don't even have to use the short end.
