At full droop, my rear spring is off the collar nearly an inch, for a rear ride height of 4.25. On the front, at full droop, the spring is still compressed to where it needs a spanner to adjust it, at a ride height of 3.9 inches. My measurement from top of collar to top of threaded housing (per your picture) is 3.05 driver side, 2.9 pass side. It did seem weird to me to have slack in the rear spring, and compression on the front, but I figured as long as I have plenty of adjustment room on the threaded housing (and I do), I'm good with it.

Pet the dog.
Bingo. Exactly what I needed to hear. My rear springs do the same as yours and it sounds like the fronts are very, very close with mine maybe still needing to settle some.

Dogs are awesome.
