Question: I need further clarification please.

Did you determine that the rear of the car is actually lower than stock? If so, is the spring the cause?

I just received my AIM and will check to see what it says. If, indeed, it is lower the stock, how do I determine if it is the spring? Is it a given that is the case?

If the stock bolts aren't short enuf, make sure you get a grade 8 bolt.

Most of the answer is in the other post that you started asking the same question. Inspect the rubber bushings at the ends of the spring for compression and excessive cracking. This will affect ride height by almost an inch. Look at the spring itself for damage and general profile. There should be at least a slight positive arch to it at normal ride height. Look at the spring bolts- Bubba may have already visited and put longer bolts to lower the car.
