My drivers side is significantly lower than my passenger. I would say more so in the rear than the front. It really looks horrible. I've talked to 2 previous owners of the car (both friends) and they swear the car sat fine when they owned it.

Here's the thing though. When I bought the car the engine was shot so it sat up for probably a year and half. The spot I had it sitting was uneven. The way it sat, the rear drivers side was in a little bind, and the whole drivers side was sitting on a small hill/mound of dirt so the car sat very uneven. I'm wondering if the shocks/springs could have settled like this?

The car had SFC's when I bought it so I don't think it's the frame or anything. There are no sway bars on the car, stock v6 springs, shocks/struts were replaced sometime in the last 5-6 years, and lots of extra weight in the back due to home made cage and battery relocation. I'll try to get pics tonight when I get it on level ground in the parking lot at work but if someone can answer my previous question about shocks/springs settling then that'd be great.

 

did you check the spring isolators ?

 

struts can last dam near forever, but 5-6 years on shocks is a good time to replace them.

If it still sags, change springs.

 

I honestly don't know what the spring isolators are but I will find out and check them. I had planned on getting the car on stands tomorrow and checking everything out but it looks like I'm getting rained out. Also my digital camera decided to quit working so no pics of the sagging.

 

They are the rubber donuts that sit on the top of the springs

 

haha thanks that clears things up. If it's not raining tomorrow I'll be under it checking things out. I really hope it's that simple but it's sitting pretty funny. I really hope the frame isn't bent or anything. The car did have a much hotter engine in it before this and supposedly broke a taillight or something on a launch one day before the sfc's. The guy swears it still sat right after that though.

I was checking it out earlier in the parking lot and it definitely looks like the front pass side is sitting too high and the back drivers side too low. I really don't think it sat like this when I bought it and it seems to be getting worse.

 

I had the same problem on my car. One of my front springs was installed upside down and it was damaged. It was about 1" shorter than the other side after I removed them both to compare.

To check out everything, I would park the car on level ground and measure from the ground to the top of each of the wheel wells to see which one is off the most. Mine was actually 1 3/16 higher on the passenger side front.

 

This is exactly where I would look! I have just corrected this issue with mine, the front prings were installed upside down and not indexed into the spring pocket, if you looked at the back of the car it sat high on the passenger side. Following this correction all is well, and she looks like the wild child once again!!
