Koni/GC install issues

I've asked around to a number of members here regarding my koni/gc install issue, the issue being that my front passengers side koni is completely extended and essentially holding the entire hub assembly from falling to the ground. Many have said this is normal, even koni and ground control confirmed this, however, my issue may be the anomaly. Because now that i have the remaining 3 corners installed, the front passenger side is the only one giving me this issue.

The real problem now is that the hub assembly is so low to the ground i can't the tire on. The car is on 4 jacks. the 3 other tires cleared fine. So what gives? The only other thing i did was front sway bar bushings and stabilzer links on each side in the front. Thoughts/suggestions are appreciated, because now after 2 months of trying to get this project done this is what is holding me up! Thanks in advance, chris

Any odds of a picture?

What's more odd to me is why is this the only one? They should all be like that.

What position is the spring adjustment? Is the spring perch welded is a different spot?

It looks pretty familiar to me! I'm guessing you're going to bring the perch up a ways?
