Yes it is normal, as mentioned the leaf springs do have a left and right side - almost all falcons run a different camber in the leaf springs from XP onward

Edit: I'm not sure what you are expecting but FOR-303 won't lower your XR ute very much at all...

<p>The springs are in. I used king springs KFFL-40SSL for the front and FOR-303 in the rear. I am very happy with the result. The measurements I took are from the bottom of the wheel rim to the guard lip and with 3/4 tank of fuel. The stock measurments are F/L-631mm, F/R-626mm, R/L-647mm, R/R- 643mm. So I was suprised that the left was higher than the right. The new measurments are F/L-609, F/R-610, R/L-621, R/R-625, about 20mm drop all round. So now the the right side of the car is just higher than the left, good for when my 100kg body sits in the car. I took it for a drive over the local train tracks and local bumpy wavy roads and it didnt bottom out or hit hard, just felt a bit firmer than standard. I still like the fact that the rear is still 10-15mm higher for when I put my motorcross bike and trailer on the back, tool box and riding gear in the tub I still got some suspension travel.<img alt="null_zps82128d95.jpg" src="http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae64/slygary/null_zps82128d95.jpg" /><img alt="null_zpse28fd455.jpg" src="http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae64/slygary/null_zpse28fd455.jpg" /><img alt="null_zps0dfab3c3.jpg" src="http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae64/slygary/null_zps0dfab3c3.jpg" /></p>

20mm drop doesn't seem worth it.
