Yes sir you did do something wrong time to retrace your steps. I believe that some of the OEM parts may need to be reused. Check out thisillustration. Did you reuse number 11, cuz it doesn't look like you did. That also shows you what order everything should be assembled in. For your purposes #2=Your skank2 shocks, #3=your springs ... other than that everything should be the same.

Hope that helps.
