rear coils settle?

I have a 4.5 drop on the front and 5 on the rear. I have had the bed off ever since i dropped the rear and just got around to putting it back on this weekend. I like the rake look but the back seems to sit up way to high for me right now. I have had the bed off for over a year but never had any weight on the back. Will putting the bed back on help the springs to settle down some after a while?

Yes it will, give it some time, you could speed it up by carrying a few hundred lbs in the back for a short time..
