Mine absolutely sags on the rear drivers side. When I do my subframe bushings/differential change-out I'll measure and report back.

Thats not the issue, you do realize its a mounting point on the actual chassis issue right?

Dude. Seriously. Just raise the spring perch one notch on that side.

yeah i know, i guess i was just trying to put everything out there. i replaced those many moons ago. I had an extra swing arm lying around so i decided to swap it out today. Yes, i didnt think this would do anything but i thought it was worth the try. Obviously it still sags. I will be changing the perch tomorrow once its light. i guess i give up.......

Are there pics of this car we can see from a flat ground?
