Does this look right? (pics inside)
You're missing your lower spring indexer/which fits between the lower spring perch and the bottom of the spring itself. It's a rubber ring that's contoured to fit the profile of the bottom of the spring.
EDIT: here's a link of how they appear (credit: GMhightechperformance, Sam Strano, and UMI):

You can either reuse the ones from your old shocks, or if not available, you can check with an auto store if they have them. If you do have to purchase them from an auto store, be aware they maybe around 12 to 20 USD each, which includes a lower spring perch as well (although it's not needed).

Thanks a lot foxxtron I also had a feeling that was needed / was a problem too. I bought the shocks used (which has sucked I wouldn't recommend it) so they didn't really come with much of anything.
The shocks never come with those lower isolators, new or used. Though I agree, used is a pain in the butt, especially if you ever break one and have no warranty.
