Coil spring lift spacer questions

Logbed said:

I actually had the driver side spirng wrong, the lower end of the coil was not in the pocket of the A-arm. I had the ball joint already in place but using an internal spring compressor I was able to squeeze the spring enough that i cound hit the end of the coil (and spacer) with a hammer and a large screwdriver and I saw it to drop to its place with a loud klang. Should be right now.

Is there anything in the upper end that might not settle perfectly right away?

I'm not too worried about it right now as it might cure itself with some miles and speedbumps but having spent some time with it, I'm curious. I might use the spring compressor again and hit the loosened spring with a plank and a sledghammer if it is worth it? Wouldn't like to dismantle the swaybar, brakes & lower ball joint and do it all over again before driving it a little though.
