6.5 lift Kit Question

I just installed a 6.5' Rough Country kit on my 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ and the rear is sitting a little higher than the front. Is this normal? Thank you and i will be posting pictures soon

The springs will settle. I've heard that brand gives a little more lift than advertised with their kits. Some guys get about 5-6 inches out of a 4.5 inch lift
