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?

No, they are not. 2011-2014 have different springs/shocks/struts. I believe that suspension kits are configured 2005-2010, and 2011-2014. NOT 2005 and up, though. I think therein lies your problem...
