coilover install questions

So I got d2racing coilovers and installed them but I don't think I have them installed right. The sway bar rattles like crazy. How far up should the end link adaptor be on the strut? I have it up so it's even with the end link when jacked up. By doing thathis I may have preloaded the springs. Should I put the adaptor up as high as it can go with no preload on the spring? Also on the rear should the perch be on top of the spring or the bottom. Search but didn't find info I could understand. Lol

Take them to an alignment place, you should of had them install it to make sure there was no camber or toe.

If your front sway bar rattles make sure the endlinks are torqued correctly
