4 link rear with coil overs?

I get the shock length, its the spring rate that's off. I set my ride height where I want it puts my shock in the correct position but my spring nut, used to adjust ride height is way up on the shock now, close to the top. I don't think that's correct, I would think it should be closer to the bottom of the shock with the proper spring rate. I other words I'm compressing the spring to almost max adjustment to get the desired ride height.
