Hey Guys, got a question ya might be able to help me out with... When i bought the car i noticed that the right rear sagged down about 20mm more than the left rear, I thought it was the old springs, because it was probably only the old guy who was ever in it...

Shoved them in and its exactly the same What else could it be Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Dont forget the front springs either, if the RF is shorter than the LF the RR will appear to be lower as well.
