gday all,

I posted this last board but anyways.

Does anyone else have problems with sag on the back drivers side, and to a less extend the front drivers side?

sounds like you need new springs...... or a counterbalance.... :) my mate has the same problem and changes springs from side to side periodically but car is gradually getting lower......

Not that getting lower is a problem. :D How old are the springs? If you use it mainly without a passenger then it will put more load on the drivers side after time

The Springs are King Springs, 1" lower than standard, and most of the time it is just me in the car.

The springs were installed new last August (04)

After i get my gas installed in the boot i am considering making a box under the boot where the current petrol tank is and putting the spare in the middle to try and balence the back of the car a bit.

As for just me in the car I am working on a g/f. :P :D ;)

I might try swaping the springs side to side. Its only like an hour job B)
