E-bodies were low in the rear right from the factory. A lot of people go with 1+ springs to get the rear up a little more.(like the AAR's and T/A's)

AAR and T/A did not have extra springs from the factory. The springs where just arched differently

This when they were first installed they sag slightly after a few weeks. They all do.
