I replaced my rear springs over the summer due to the drivers side was sitting about 1-2 in lower than the passenger side.

The problem is still there and actually seems to be getting worse.

2 years ago I had a minor accident that involved air time and on landing the drivers side front took most of the impact. Could this have cause considerable damage to that spring enough that it would cause a tilt towards the drivers side?

Any ideas on other things that would cause this? I have some stuff in the trunk, I'm gonna try balancing the weight back there and see if it helps but I dont think theres enough for that to be the cause.

Mine is 3/8 lower on driver side. Can't find anything wrong. Front springs have been replaced. Its not that noticeable so I live with it. You say yours is getting worst?? Try a front end shop for inspection.
On your air time, are you sure the frame is straight?? There was a post awhile back where many guys said there car leaned mostly on the drivers side. Try a search for that

The frame was supposedly strattened but I'm suspicious cause the driver fender is out vertical alignment just a tad close to the door. It seems to be getting a little worse, could be my imagination, but there is around 2 in difference on the back and not so much on the front.

The car was aligned about a month ago after replacing a tie rod end and they didn't mention anything about it being twisted still. If I get some extra cash it might be a good idea to take it to a different body shop.

I'd get in there and check to make sure you don't have a broken or bent spring perch/shock mount. On my Elky, the left side perch was cracked ~ 6 inches where it meets the frame. If you had airtime, the mounts could have cracked and this could be the cause of the height difference, even if the frame is where it's supposed to be.

Also, what kind of shape are the body bushings in? I'd imagine a couple of wiped out body bushings could also give you this problem.

This is all assuming that the problem is at the back of the car - I'm not 100% sure from your post that it is the rear that is off.

Good luck,

I agree with all of the above. I keep meaning to check my body bushings, but I'm kind of afraid of what I'll find. :eek: graemlins/sad.gif

The difference is most apparent in the back but it present on the front as well. I'll give everthing a look over this weekend while I'm putting on my cheapass traction bars.

Have a similar problem. Put the car on a level floor, measure from the bottom surface of the body mount position to the floor. It should be the same on opposite sides or the frame is bent. Frame could also be cracked. Measure the difference between the inside and outside pivet points on the front. It should be the same on both sides if front springs are OK. Measure the rear ride height, distance from bottom of the frame to the top of the axel, it should be the same if the rear springs are OK. Check you spring perchs. Also you body could be sprung and repair panels hung improperly over the years. Good luck. Jim
