Default Need some advise on rear spacer

Last weekend i installed a Craigs list special 1.75 BB. The guy gave it to me for free when I bought his Rubicon shocks so i have no clue on the brand of it. On the rear I installed the isolator between the spring and spacer which I believe is correct. But last night I noticed that at the top of the spacer in the front there is about a 1/4-1/2 inch gap between spacer and frame. My question is are these spacers supposed to "pop" into place like the terraflex do? or was the isolator supposed to be on top of the spacer? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a similar setup and I run the isolator on top of the spacer and don't have any issues. Looks like yours is the opposite.

That's not good. You should probably pull those spacers until you figure out what the deal is. Are the springs spun around on the bottom where they are supposed to be? Are they the right fitment for your year jeep?
