Looks like you have them on backwards. They should droop down... not point up.
Unthread them and make sure you didnt already crack something.

i was under the impression that the hump was supposed to be facing toward the front of the car?

shit so they are essentially on the wrong side. if i swap them from left to right and rotate them down i should be good?

Swap them. Also, do you have subframe risers? If so, the RUCA might hit. If it does, take an air hammer to the body. :)

I opened this thread for the lolz potential.

Glad you got it figured out.
