Been noticing my jeep "listing" a bit in the rear passenger too...Surprising they don't last all that long.
Same on passenger side for me front and rear. With multiple sets of springs. There is definitely some asymmetry in suspension movement with cycling that is track bar related. But since the front and rear track bars go in different directions that wouldn’t explain the passenger side being low in each position. I could never figure it out and ultimately “fixed” this with 3/4” spring spacers on the passenger side. I am interested to see what the Jeep does on coil overs with longer control arms and a four link rear.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the difference of the midarm vs the "conventional" suspension I have on mine?
Shouldn't. The springs don't know what arms are in there. If anything, lifted short arms would be reducing the forces on the springs during hard pulls and climbs.

I mostly agree, aside from the fact that your axle can move straight up and down (when viewed laterally across the body) and anyone with a trackbar has an axle that is moving in a radius within two planes. I don't know if that would make a difference in how they take a set, but there are definitely more side forces acting on my springs that there are on yours.
That reminds me of 8.8 swaps where the rear driveshaft is angled off to one side a bit.
Different part numbers? Added weight over the years? These are mine. They don't seem to sag after 6 years. CE-9132F and CE-9131RH3
