pedders help?

I got a set of pedders for my ss/tc. The fronts seem fine, but the coils in the rear are way too large. They're hitting my brake calipers.

I was sent 22006 for the fronts and 22007 for the rears. Are those the right numbers?

"Got it" was because I was on my phone and didn't care to type more than necessary at that time.

Didn't get them upside down or back on front or anything like that. It was even dumber, actually I did the right side first and it wasn't seated all that well, apparently. When I jacked the left side of the twisting beam to seat that spring the right one came lose a little. Then when I let the beam down a little to get the shock bolts in the right spring must have slid off the seat and leaned outboard a little. Once I let the car down off the stands and onto the tires it put that spring right up against the brake caliper.

I just needed to walk inside the house, stare are the tv for a few minutes, put on my glasses and go back outside again and I noticed it immediately.
