Leaning rear
Leaning rear
The other day I was driving when all of a sudden I hear a loud, "Ping!" from my right rear. At first I thought someone threw something at me. When I stopped and looked at the car I noticed(from the back) the the right rear was lower than the left. Any one have any ideas, I just got new shocks and springs all the way around a few months ago. I sure could use some help on this.

Things to look at/for:
Broken spring (unlikely since they are new but possible)
Damaged spring mount on axle/body (does your car have any rust?)
Were the springs seated correctly to begin with (was the *** end higher than normal before hand?)
How much does it sag by?

Spring isn't broken, no rust on car but I still need to check the mount, car was at normal ride height with new springs and shocks. And no air shocks. When you look at the rear it's very noticable(at least to me), I can try to post pics if you want to see.

Mine sags at the right rear by an inch.
I've looked at everything and can't find anything wrong. I'm thinking I have a weak spring.
