saggin' rear end !

Well it got you to LOOK !!

On my '70 Jimmy, the previous owner put 3/4 ton leafs in the back and lifted it 3-4 inches. The front is lifted 4" . The right (pass) rear is settng 3/4" - 1 1/4" lower than the other rear side. I took the measurements at the top of the outside wheel well.

Obviously the difference is less noticable at the frame.....
What is the best (easiest) way to level the ride !

Again, the heights are different at the frame AND the wheel well.


Thanks !!

Have you inspected all of your body mount bushings? Sounds almost like you have two problems. One thing I found with my Camaro when it sat funny was that the FRONT suspension not being right played a big role in the rear.
