The springs didn't even come in contact with the top hat when everything was tight

But I figured once the weight of the car was on them they wouldn't move

Fixed it top hats were not getting tight due to no more thread cause the springs were shorter put 2 washer under the nuts on each side in the rear and everything got tight and no more clunking
