  • Rear end sag

    I swear it seems like one thing after another with this car, anyway it appears to be sagging on passenger side rear end area, when parked on level ground its obvious to see the lean, no lowering kit on it at all so any ideas what this could be? :rolleyes:

    I'll leave it to someone who knows something more about suspension than me, but FWIW you can edit your post by clicking the Edit button. ;)

        Hey, mine does the same thing, and i got this little "thump thump" constant noise from the same pass. rear side. Its about 1/2" to 3/4" lower on that rear pass. side.

        I was able to fix the problem of the rear being lower, it was just the spring had turned some and come out of its proper seat, and was bowing between the axel and car, so instead of the spring sitting like |, it sat like (. That lowered the car a bit. I looked up with a flashlight, jacked the car up by the frame, and turned the spring by hand until it lined up again properly.

        Your spring might be broken also, thats a possibility. Check everything with the spring, its gotta be something with that.

          mine does the exact same thing, im going to check the spring today, i thought maybe the frame was torqued for some reason because it droops on the rear passenger side. With an ungoddly thump sound when i go over a bump coming from that side. but hopefully its just the spring.

            I get that ungodly thump as well... i'm replacing my springs as soon as my car comes out of the shop so hopefully that solves it.

              Thats what I would have suggested, mine did the same thing. Its pretty easy to fix.
