i think its the material they are made of which is less prone to sagging and squishyness but mine were the same way.

Its not how long they are but the rating
stock springs for the front for example are rated at 310, OME 927s are 400
so while they may appear to be about the same height they will hold up more weight without sagging resulting in more lift

now. my front is sitting at 21 1/2 on both sides
but the back......
driver side 20 1/4 and passenger side 21. so I need to gain about an inch on the back to level up with the front.

what is the best way to do that.
