I wonder if you have fox length arms? That would slam the struts all the way in against the frame rails.

I understand that you have a 2002 Mustang. What I'm telling you is that the 79-93 arms will physically bolt onto your car. If the person who sold you your suspension mistakenly sold you Fox length arms rather than the 1994+ arms, it could cause clearance issues with the coilovers and frame rails.
