Doesn't the spring pressure (once installed) keep the rubber isolators flat? On another thread, Brian recommends loosening the subframe mounting bolts on the opposite side of the car, and undoing them completely on the side you are fitting to increase the distance between the arm's cup and the wheelarch cup. It also allows the arb to drop with the subframe. It worked for me. One last thing, as said, lube both spring seats so the spring can be turned more easily. You can temporarily lock the isolators in their correct positions by putting bolts through the drain holes during assembly.
