The leafs I replaced in my XJ were more of a W shape they were so sagged/negative arch. Gone so bad that the passenger side leafs all cracked when I tried to get the center pin out. :-(

Normal. Flatter leafsprings are more supple than arched springs. Its one of the reasons lifted Jeeps ride harsher. As long as your Jeep is level or slightly up in the rear you are good to go.
