How the front struts look

How I solved the dilema in the back because of there just being a spring and not a spring and strut. What I did was drilled a 2.5inch hole in the spring mounting perch and my coil overs came with a guide so I set the guide in the hole and it allowed the spring to sit on the lower perch. What I did for the threaded collar part was to grind the lip off of the upper spring guide slide the collar on. I will take more detailed pictures later

This is how much gap I now have it set at up front. It's roughly an inch and half of gap. I will take pictures with the car raised all the way and slammed all the way as well

Back is the same as the front.

Just a view from the back so you can see how the spring sits, as you can see I also cut out my spare tire well in that picture

This is it from the top
And while I'm at it I took some pictures of my engine bay
