That is probably the ticket...I will check mine should I change out the stock for the Roush rears only. Maybe from the factory some cars had this issue or lack of a part or a smashed part to perch the springs. Thanks EVIL!!!!!!!!!!! Boomer post some pics in this thread please!!!!!!!!!

Are they in right side up or upside down?
You should be able to read the ROUSH printed
on them without standing on your head.
Did you index them the exact same way as the
stock springs were indexed in relation to
the pig tails? Full tank of fuel or half a tank?
It matters because the fuel tank is saddle bag
style and pulls fuel from the passengers side
until it is empty then pulls the fuel from the drivers
side until thats empty.

The car has rubber isolators in the rear, when i did my install i noticed that they came down with the spring attached and all, seemed weird to my buddy who had done 5 previous installs and never had this problem. I noticed my drop was uneven and finally figured out that the isolators were not sitting properly

Oh ok, that's why. You can't really see much of anything where the top of the springs go w/o a flashlight and I never really looked, I just tossed them in there and bolted up the shocks.
