Rear Springs

I was talking to a guy at a spring shop in town about my rear springs on my 1989 Southwind 30E. I told him the springs were almost flat with little arch (with no air bag). He said many RV rear springs are flat and mine may be OK. I do see that new springs have a 4 inch arch with no load. Does anyone know if these springs are OK? How much arch should the springs have under load(with no air bag)? How much clearance should the axle have from the frame(with no air bag)?

Thanks

Buster
