So here I am again. This is my 2nd Landy, again an '82 Series 3 SWB. As we got it home, we realized it had serious suspension issues. The old Parabolics it had were completely gone. They were flat, the car was basically sitting on the axles. SO we got new standard leaf springs and shocks, finally got them all switched out, and now I have a problem. The ride height is an average of 2.25 inches higher in the front than in the rear. I have talked to RN and they told me that, given the measurements, It was normal. But I am seriously not buying it. I have taken it out, and driven it on a few good bumpy dirt roads just to settle everything out, but it is still just doesn't seem right. Pictures to follow:

Probably not helpful at all, but looking at mine the rear is higher by about what you show but springs are one of the few things I haven't messed with (yet). I did replace my shocks and the front and rear shocks were different lengths. As I remember the rear were longer?! Also looking at the springs in the catalog, I see they are different part numbers. I hope nothing was reversed!?
