Default Coilovers - problem with install - 2011 GT

hellou,
I need help with installing my new coilovers on 2011 5.0. Coilovers are for Mustang 2005 up. Shocks and springs are same on Mustang 2005 and 2011?
Problem is that new shocks are shorter than stock (but heigh is adjustable, so this is probably ok) and also springs (but springs are toooo short) as you can see on pictures.
What is problem? :smile2:
My car has brembo packet - does it mean that suspension is different from basic GT? Or what am I doing wrong?

oh geez, you are going from stock to a coil over setup, you really need to read the directions, it is a completely different setup that stock, as the spring is now part of a strut assembly, instead of seperate in a spring/shock setup. you cant compare the 2 side by side and expect anything to loos the same
