This is what my springs look like after the install.
Drivers side, then passenger side.
I have NOT gotten an alignment yet, trying to get it in next week.
Is this normal? And will the alignment straighten the springs out?
Or did I do something wrong?

That's how mine looked. Has to to with the buckets on the axle and how the spring flexes in its range of motion. Also if you don't have an adjustable track bar your axle is now pulled to the driver side slightly. This is because the axle is pushed down (green) by the spacer now sitting on top of the spring. This makes your track bar (red) too short. Thus, pulling your axle over.

Thanks. I appreciate all your help with this. I'll just get it aligned and let it ride until I decide if I want to go higher or not.

No problem. They don't look great but I never had problems with the setup except maxing out my shocks off road.
