When I bought mine from ESPO, 2" over!!
I had a heck of a time getting the lower bottom of the shakle to go towards the rear. I had to jack the body up enough to take all the weight off the springs and have a helper pull down with me on the rear of the spring to get it to "FLIP" so the bottom will go towards the rear. Then it took a day or two to settle. I think this is the problem. That spring has way to much arc in the rear, and the shakle need to flip back and remove some arc and it will lower the car.
Yo will also have to loosen the rear shakle bolts and lube the rubbers for it to flip.
Hope this helps.. I also thought I had the wrong, shorter springs.

Thanks for the advice. I really think my problem is bigger than that, though; I actually had to put a floor jack under the spring and lift the car up just to get the shackle to attach flat to the front. I just don't think there's anywhere near enough length to get the shackle to "flip". I could be wrong though......
