I had this prollem when I put my new springs on.  Try taking them back out
and when you put them in again, make sure they are JUST touching, then
tighten the allen up.  That worked for me.  Otherwise, you may be better
off taking it to the shop and letting them take care of it all.  That way
you don't run the risk of messing something else up and them claiming it
was your fault.  Only thing I don't get it why the wheel speed sensors were
even off.  You don't have to remove the whole strut assembly to change the
cartridges.  Hmmm. . .  Good luck.
