Superlift installed and having issues

I just installed a superlift 2.5" lift on my 2001 cherokee. I didn't add the add a leafs. I ordered superlifts replacement springs. I installed those today and a pon completion the rear is higher and the ride is hard and bouncy. I am wondering if those springs dont work. please any info is greatly appreciated. I'm going crazy with this. thanks

Leaf springs take a little while to settle. Most will drop about 1/2-1" in a few months and the ride will get softer as well.
