That'd be you problem right there Mike...the tightly wound part goes UP.
Notice that on the tightly wound end, the spring has a taper ground into the end of the coil making the end sit flat...this goes up & rests on the rubber pad in the upper spring bucket.
The lower end engages an indent in the spring perch to keep them from rotating. Look closely & you'll see what I mean.
