possible defective 890 coil?

Sorry if I didn't do an exhaustive search on this, but I am heading out to
camp and took a look at the new suspension and noticed something

My Passenger Rear OME 890 coil seems to have sagged about 1.25"
This does not seem normal to me at all

New install height:
DR: 23.25"
PR: 23.25"
Installed 7.13.13

Current height: (with full tank of fuel and some gear)
DR: 23.25"
PR: 22.00"

Everything flexes fine and I feel no binding etc.
I actually don't mind the "sagged height" and am wondering if the
driver's side just hasn't settled yet (higher rate, or just taller?)
But a 1.25" settle in one week seems like a lot.
I am obviously going to contact the dealer on Monday, but wanted
some feedback from you folks in the meantime...

I am off to the woods, so I might not be able to respond right away.

Also depending on what you on running on your front suspension could also affect the height and lean. My coil-overs were set on different notches from toytec so when they were installed the truck had about the same lean as you do.
 
The A spring went on driver side.
Besides, if they were switched, the
lean would go other way.
Both 5100s on 1st (lowest) notch.
 
That makes sense . Maybe jackup the frame of the truck and measure the springs at full droop .

Or I'm sure it's possible that a spring could be defective or the wrong spring rate .

I would call the manufacture .
