I'm confused. I need help from somebody smarter than me.

Do belltech 5100's fit an 85 Cutlass? Seems like a funny question, but man these springs don't look right in the back of my car. They do not want to sit on the axle perches, as in they're leaning forward. Maybe I just need to clean some rust off of the perches? I thought the weight of the car would make them seat, but after I lowered the jack and bounced the rear a bit they are still sitting cockeyed. No where can I find an application listing that says these work in my cutty, but my factory cutlass springs work great in my Malbu. I'm not sure if these can be installed upside down, but I've tried both ways with the same issue.

There's another thing I was having trouble with. What is the proper way to do this on the rear? The front obviously has the 'stop' so to speak on the lower control arm, but I dont see anything like this out back. My insulators came out so I can't go by those

I think the end of the sping at the bottom is supposed to be towards the back of the car
