I installed it following the instructions manual that came with the coils, and the manual states that the spring preload adjuster will be what comes into direct contact with the vehicle body (besides that little rubber seat).

Does the bottom of the spring need to be housed inside the OEM spring cup? It didn't seem like so to me as the spring had a flat edge but I could very much be wrong. If anybody has pictures or instructions or any thoughts about this please help.
