    Default One side sagging

    My car is on an angle at the REARS.

    Leaning to the right. I have checked suspension and all is good. So shock/springs are not the problem. Yet car is still lower on the right hand side.

    What else should I check? Control arms?

    check all the bushings as they could be degraded in the low corner.
    How does it feel when it's rolling. Is the steering stable or all over the place under acceleration and braking?

    Are the dead hookers in the boot evenly distributed? This has been known to cause such a problem. So has sagging springs...has this happened rapidly?

    lostie.

    Swap rear springs side for side. Most cars have one person in them and so the driver's side tends to sag more over time.

    It can also be caused by a mismatch in height at the front. Check the front and maybe do the same swap there too.

    steerings a little wacked, because I lowered it and didnt do an alignment.

    Bushings is all i can think of at the moment cause i've replaced both pairs of springs and shocks in the rears and still no good.

    I even put the first pair of springs on my cousins car and they turned out to be even on his car,dam.
